Hypotonic Solution
Has more pure water in solution. Cell expands
Hypertonic solution
Has less water. Cell shrinks
Necessary nutrient
Body makes
Essential nutrient
Body doesn’t make needs outside source
Formula for disaccharides
C12H22011
3 monosaccharides
glucose fructose galactose
Process of forming disaccharides
Enzymatic dehydration synthesis
Process of breaking down disaccharides
enzymatic hydrolysis
2 main components of fat
glycerol and 3 fatty acids
Denature of proteins
unfolding of protein chain causing loss of 3D structure
Causes of denature
temperature ph., and chemicals
3 pairs of salivary gland
parotid, sublingual, submaxillary
3 layers of muscle in stomach
longitudinal, circular, oblique
3 main parts of small intestine
duodenum, jejunum, ileum
what neutralizes acid in the small intestine
sodium bicarbonate
sugar test
benedict’s test turns blue,green,yellow
starch test
iodine, turns blue
protein test
biuret test turns pink, purple
what does an enzyme do
speeds up chemical reactions by reducing need for energy
ph. of stomach
1-3
deamination
removal of an amine group NH2
what happens to secretin when the ph of chyme decreases
it increases
what is a competitive inhibitor
what stops the enzyme from doing its job
