16
Q

What Is the locus

A

The position of a gene on a Chromosome

17
Q

Why do enzymes denatured at too high temp

A

Their molecules vibrate too much,
Breaking the hydrogen bonds that hold the 3D shape

18
Q

Why are enzymes denatured with pH

A

The hydrogen bonds break, changing the active site shape change

19
Q

What is the water potential if there is low water and high substrates

A

Low water potential

20
Q

What is the water potential if there is alot of water and low substrates

A

High water potential

21
Q

If the water potential is low in the cell where does the water move

A

Into the cell

22
Q

If water potential is high in the cell where does water move

A

Out of the cell

23
Q

What shape is starch

24
Q

What type of glucose is cellulose made of

25
What is cellulose used for
Cell walls
26
What type of glucose is starch made of
Alpha
27
What type of glucose is glycogen made of
Alpha
28
Are storage molecules soluble
No
29
What types of bonding does cellulose have
Glycosidic bonds Hydrogen bonding between layers
30
How do you test for non-reducing sugars
HCL + NaCO3 Then can use benedicts solution
31
How to test for reducing sugars
Use benedicts solution
32
Is cellulose branched or unbranched
Unbranched
33
Is starch branched or unbranched
Branched
34
Why is it good for storage molecules to be branched
So they can be compact
35
What is it called when bile salts break down lipids
Emulsification
36
What are micelle's made with
Bile salts
