Q

polyunsaturated

A

fatty acid with many double bonds between its carbon chain

25
lipids should be
no more than 30% diet
26
polyunsaturated fat is a
liquid at room temp
27
lipids compose
phospholipid bilayer FAT MEMBRANE PHOSPHOLIPIDS BRO
28
phospholipid
molecule that is similar to a fat molecule in that it contains a glycerol portion and fatty acid chains
29
difference between phospholipid and fat molecule
phospholipid has only two fatty acids instead of three
30
what is in place of the third fatty acid
phosphate group
31
job of phospholipids
energy and making membranes
32
steroids
complex structures that include interconnected rings of carbon atoms
33
most important steroids
cholesterol (helps to make more steroids, sex hormones and hormones from the adrenal glands)
34
proteins
serve as structural materials, energy sources, hormones, surface receptors, and enzyme
35
enzymes
proteins that serve as catalysts
36
amino acids
the building blocks for proteins
37
what happens when artery in brain is clogged
stroke
38
proteins job
build and repair
39
what do amino acids contain
amino group (nh2) and carboxyl group (cooh)
40
how many amino acids occur commonly in proteins
20
41
hydrogen bonds
maintain shape of protein molecules
42
diet should be 20%
protein
43
denaturing of hydrogen bonds
breaks down due to excessive heat, radiation, or chemical
44
example of denatured hydrogen bond
protein in the egg white
45
nucleic acids
the most fundamental of the compounds in cells because they control cell activities
46
nucleotides
bound atoms
47
each nucleotide consists of
ribose carbon sugar (pentode or guanine) a phosphate group, and 1 of several organic based
48
rna
ribonucleic acid, synthesize protein
49
dna
deoxyribonucleic acid | stores information in a molecular code to be used by cells to construct specific proteins
50
RMR stands for
Resting metabolic rate
51
Resting metabolic rate
Measure of energy expended for maintenance or normal body functions and homeostasis and the activity of the sympathetic nervous system
52
4 compartments to energy expenditure
RMR, TEF, TEE, AT
53
RMR accounts for
60-75% of total daily expenditure
54
TEF
Thermic effect of food
55
TEE
Thermic effect of exercise
56
At
Adaptive thermogenesis
57
Change in RMR due to
Body reacting to stress such as cold, overeating, and emotion (ADAPTIVE THERMOGENESIS)
