Four organic compounds
Carbohydrates, proteins and nucleic acid and lipids
Building blocks of lipids
Fatty acids
DNA and RNA are..
Nucleic acids
Speed up the rate of chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy
Enzymes
Name of the peak of an enzyme graph/pH at which an enzyme works best
Optimum
Color of negative Benedict’s test during carb lab
Blue
Three factors that affect enzyme rate
Temperature, pH and ionic conditions
Dependent variable in the potato demo
Bubbles
Where do we find the enzyme catalase
Potato and yeast
Answers to the question of the lab (CER)
Claim
What are the building blocks of the four organic compound
Carbohydrates are mono di and polysaccharides, lipids are fatty acid’s, protein has amino acids and nucleic acid has nucleotides
What’s the difference between saturated fat and unsaturated fat in terms of food examples bonds liquids or solids
Saturated fat – butter, single bond, solid
Unsaturated fat – olive oil, double bond, liquid
What is the role of enzymes in chemical reactions
Enzymes speed up chemical reactions by lowering the amount of activation energy needed
