AP Bio Chapter 3 Flashcards
Carbons 4 ve-
Easy to form carbon molecules
Molecular diversity in carbon skeletons
Linear backbone, varies in length, branching, double bond position, & rings
Structural isomers
compounds with same chemical formula but different structure and chemical behaviors (geometric)
Cis-trans isomers
Compounds with same chemical formulas but different locations of functional groups and chemical behaviors (geometric)
Cis isomer
two x’s on same side
Trans isomer
two x’s on opposite side
Enantiomers
compounds with same chemical formulas but mirror image, identical chemical & physical properties

Dehydration reaction
Many monomers bond to polymer with the loss of water
Examples of dehydration for carbs, proteins, nucleic acids, lipids
Carbs- many monosac- 1 polysac
Proteins- many amino acids- 1 polypep
NA- many nucleotides- 1 nucleic acid (DNA)
Lipids- glycerol + 2 fatty acids- 1 lipid
Hydrolysis reaction
Break down polymers to monomers with water
Examples of hydrolysis for carbs, proteins, nucleic acids, lipids
Carbs- 1 polysac- many monosac
Proteins- 1 polypep- many amino acids
NA- 1 nucleic acid- many nucleotides
Lipids- 1 lipid- glycerol + 2 fatty acids
ATP
Adenosine triphosphate
(ribose & adenine-adenosine)
3 phosphate groups (beta, alpha, gamma)
ATP cycle
ATP releases phosphate and energy for cell, creates ADP, absorbs energy from food and gains phosphate
Carbohydrates monomer
Monosaccharide (classified by # of C and placement of carbonyl group)
Fructose in fruits
Dissacharides
Dehydration joins 2 monosaccharides with covalent bond of glycosidic linkage
glucose+fructose–>sucrose
