identify the limpid nature of a substance

Question 12

what is the building blocks of protein

Answer 12

amino acid

Question 13

saturated fatty acids

Answer 13

all carbon atoms are linked together by one single bond but contain the maximum number of hydrogen atoms

Question 14

unsaturated fatty acids

Answer 14

do not have the max number of hydrogen atoms, have one or more double bonds between the carbon atoms

Question 15

hypertonic

Answer 15

solution is a lower concentration than inside the cell, water will be drawn out of the cell

Question 16

hypotonic

Answer 16

solution is a higher concentration of solvent that inside the cell, will shrink

Question 17

Isotonic

Answer 17

same concentration within the solvent and the inside of the cell

Question 18

the difference you observed in between the algae leaves with different solvents

Answer 18

hypertonic (NaCl)= cell shrinks
hypotonic = cell swelled
control (tap water)=Isotonic cells seem nice

peptide bond?

Answer 21

this is a covalent bond that forms between an amino group and a carboxyl group of another amino acid
