6.1 bio Flashcards
1
Q
Functional groups +, - , polar, or non polar
A
Polar
- hydroxyl
- carbonyl
- sulfhydryl
Non polar
- methyl
Positive
- amino
Negative
- Phosphate
2
Q
Isomer
A
Molecules with the same molecular formula but different structures
3
Q
monomer
A
building block
4
Q
polymers
A
Multiple monomers put together
5
Q
dehydration synthesis
A
- Joins momomers by taking out H20
- one monomer donates 0H-
- Other monomer donates H+
- Together these form H2O
6
Q
Hydrolysis
A
- H2) to break down polymers
-Reverse of DH
-Cleave of one monomer at a time
-water is split into H+ and OH- - H+ and OH- attach to enzyems
7
Q
Explain why carbon is a versatile building block for organic molecules
A
It can form 4 stable strong covalent bonds
8
Q
relation between monomers, polymers, dehydration synthesis, and hydrolysis
A
Monomers are formed together during DS, this forms H2O, them polymers are broken back into monomers during hysrolyso.
