|
macromolecule
|
large molecule made from monomers, or smaller molecules through polymerization
|
|
|
|
protein
|
stores energy, builds cells, control reactions, made up of the monomer amino acids, polymer= polypeptide chain
you can identify it if it has an N |
|
|
|
lipids
|
store energy, made up of monomer fatty acids
you can identify by a long chain of momomers ex. HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH |
|
|
|
carbohydrates
|
provide energy, made up of the monomer monosaccharides, polymer= polysaccharide
can identfy by C, H2O or if it makes a little rectangle in its chain |
|
|
|
nucleic acids
|
store genetic information (think like nucleus)
monomer= nucleotide polymer= DNA + RNA |
|
|
|
To find sugars (carbohydrates):
|
1. put beneicts solution in a test tube with a substance in it
2.heat tube and contents 3. if color changes, it has sugar 4. I.V.= sustance/marcromolecule D.V.= color of solution |
|
|
|
to find starch (carbohydrates):
|
1. put lugol's solution on substance in question
2.if color changes, starch is present 3. I.V.= substance/macromolecule D.V.= color of solution |
|
|
|
to find protein:
|
1. Place food in test tube
2.Add Biruet solution to tube 3. If color changes, protein is present 4. I.V.= substance/macromolecule D.V.= color of solution |
|
|
|
to find fats:
|
1. rub food on paper bag
2.If stain is left, fats are present 3. I.V.= substance/macromolecule D.V.= stain or not |
|
|
|
What is the polymer for nucleic acids? carbohydrates?
|
DNA + RNA, polysacchrides
|
|
|
|
list the characteristics of living things?
|
-made up of cells
-reproduce -are based on a universal genetic code -grow and develop -obtain and use materials and energy -respond to their environment -mantain a stable internal environment -as a group, change over time |
what is the basic unit of all life? we gotta keep the legacy alive somehow... whats the passcode? live and grow! how else could u be made so fab and make it work? omg! keep your cool. like fashion changes all the time
|
|
|
if fire grows and consumes energy, is it alive? why or why not?
|
it doesn't have all the characteristics of life, ex. homeostasis
|
|
|
|
Are most cells exactly the same? Why or why not?
|
No, incredibly diverse for a variety of functions
|
come on. some people can make it work, and others cant. like teddy. he rocks that suit and felt cap fer shurr.
|
|
|
sexual reproduction
|
thwo cells from different parents unite to make the first cell of the new organism
|
yo mama and yo papa
|
|
|
asexual reproduction
|
when the new organism has a single parent
|
|
|
|
metabolism
|
the combination of chemical reactions through whcih an organism builds up or breaks own materials to charry ot life processes
|
|
|
|
homeostasis
|
the ability for an organism to maintain a stable and constant internal environment
|
home you stay, sis. somebody to check you when ur messed up. only on the inside, like home (???)
