Q

what is carb nomoculture

A

when we name carbs; usually as monosaccharies single sugars
oligosaccaridies 3-10 monos
and
polysaccharies 10 plus

they are all made up of carbons attached to other stuff

24
Q

carbs + polypeptides

A

glycoproteins

25
what are glycoproteins useful for?
dtermining antigens and stuff like blood group
26
lipids examples ?
- fats - oils - waxes - steroids
27
are lipids none-polar or polar
none-polar
28
are lipids soulable in water
nope they are hydrophilliic
29
triglycerides are made up of what
fatty acids and glycerol
30
what makes up fatty acids
- COOH - hydrocarbon train
31
when lipids bond, when glycerol bonds with fatty acids what bond forms and what process is it
- ester bonds - H20 released so condensation
32
phosphate group is hydrophilic or phobic?
hydrophillic, it's the head
33
the fatty acids are hydrophilic or phobic?
hydrophobic
34
in saturated fatty acids what are the carbon bonds like
single, meaning each has 2 H and its straight
35
in unsaturated what are the carbon bonds like
double, causing a kink or bend
36
saturated acid melting point
higher cus they are closley packed
37
unsaturated acid melting point
lower cus they break easier
38
tryglicerides with mostly unsaturated fats
oils
39
tryglicerides with mostly saturated fats
fats
40
monounsaturated fats double bonds
1
41
polyunsaturated fats double bonds
more than 1
42
steroids are so they can
hydrophobic so they can pass thru the bilayer
43
how many essential amino acids are there
9
44
what parts make up amino acids
- hydrogen atom - amine group -NH - carboxyl group COOH - r group
45
when ammino acids condense, what bond forms?
peptide bond
46
what determines the sequence of amino acids
DNA base sequence
47
olisopeptide
2-10 ammino acids
48
dipeptide
2 ammino acids
49
polypeptide
many amminoacids
50
when proteins dentaure, what has happened
the intermolecular forces between have been vibrated and broken
