Transcript
Free Response – due Friday, Oct 2 – typed – single-spaced – one page All living things are made of carbon-based molecules. These molecules have different structures and functions. Explain how the atomic structure and covalent bonding properties of carbon atoms allow carbon to form many different types of molecules with many different functions. In your answer: • define covalent bond • explain how carbon-based rings and chains can form very large molecules • name the four main types of carbon-based molecules in organisms and discuss the biological importance of each in relation to cellular structure & function in plants & animals. Use the following terms: covalent, carbon, monomer, polymer, carbohydrate, monosaccharide, lipid, fatty acid, semi-permeable membrane, protein, amino acid, nucleic acid, nucleotide, genetic, energy.
