Notes 13 Biomolocules (Continued) Flashcards
Proteins carry out diffrent functions, name a few
1)Make chemical reactions
2)Forms fibers indide cell and gives it shape (Cytoskeleton)
3)Forms holes/gates that control what enters and leaves (Transport proteins)
4
What are some nonliving body parts
1)Hair
2)wool
3)Feathers

5)Nails
Why are hormones important?
Hormones are chemicals that are disrubted around the body, carrying chemical messages
What does Insulin do?
Helps the body absorb glucose from the blood
What does Adreniline do?
Readies the body for Intenese activities
Monomers consist of 20 diffrent Blank
20 diffrent Amino Acids
Polymers=
Polymers=Polypeptides
Polypeptides consist of thousands of blank
Thousands of Amino Acids
One Amino Acid are assembled into polymers, the long chain bends and twist to form a blank
that is required for the protein to do its blank
One Amino Acid are assembled into polymers, the long chain bends and twist to form a SHAPE
that is required for the protein to do its JOB
What happens when a proteins loses its homeostasious?
It causes the protein to lose its shape which means it cant do its job
A protein that loses its shape is blank
