A,T,C,G
double
1. What are the four biomolecules? Carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, nucleic acids
2. What is an nucleotide made up of? 5-carbon sugar, phosphate group, nitrogen base
3. What is the main function of carbohydrates? Provide energy
4. What kind of organisms can make carbohydrates – what is the name of the carbohydrate they make?
Plants - starch
5. Glucose is a type of __carbohydrate________. We know the formula for glucose is _
C6H12O6_____.
6. Why is glycogen important for animals? Store it in the muscles and liver
7. What is a monosaccharide? Give an example. A simple sugar Ex glucose
8. List the proteins in your body? Hair, Skin, Hemoglobin, Collagen
9. What is a disaccharide? Give an example. 2 monosaccharides bonded together Ex: table sugar
10. What is a polysaccharide? Give an example. Contains 3 or more monosaccharides bonded together
in a chain. Ex. Starch
11. What type of biomolecule makes up the cell membrane bilayer? Lipids (phospholipids)
12. Give three examples of lipids fats, oils, wax
13. What are the building blocks of protein? Amino acids
14. DNA and RNA are the two examples of what kind of biomolecule? Nucleic acid
15. What are 4 basic elements that make up proteins? Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen,Nitrogen
16. What are the 3 basic elements that make up carbohydrates? Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen
17. What are the 3 basic elements that make up lipids?Carbon, Hydrogen, oxygen
18. Enzymes are special kinds of (proteins / carbohydrates / lipids / nucleic acids).
19. How do enzymes affect activation energy? They lower activation energy( amount of energy
needed)
20. How do enzymes affect chemical reaction rates? They speed up the rate of the reaction
21. Are enzymes used up during a chemical reaction? no
22. A protein that has lot it’s function, shape, and hydrogen bonds is considered to be?denatured
23. Can humans digest cellulose? What was the example discussed in class? No, Corn—yellow shell
24. Why is cellulose important for plants? Gives them their rigid structure
25. What did Watson and Crick discover?DNA structure
26. What does DNA stand for? Deoxyribonucleic Acid
27. What is the sugar in DNA? Deoxyribose
28. What are the four nitrogen bases in DNA? Adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine
29. What is the shape of DNA? Double helix
30. What are the two purines? Adenine, guanine
31. What are the two pyrimidines? Thymine, Cytosine
32. What nucleotide base always pairs with adenine? thymine
33. What nucleotide base pairs with guanine? Cytosine
34. What biomolecule is responsible for determining how each of us are different?DNA
35. DNA helps build amino acids which in turn make _proteins_.
36. What kind of bond holds the complementary base pairs of the DNA strand together?
hydrogen
37. What will happen to a protein if it becomes denatured? It will not function (looses its shape)
38. In the Biomolecules lab, the Biuret reagent tested for what? Protein
39. What color will the biuret turn the substance if it is positive for protein? purple
40. In the Biomolecules lab, what was the positive control for proteins? Explain why it was a positive
control. Egg whites, because it was given than egg whites are pure protein
41. In the Biomolecules lab, what was the negative control? Explain why it was a negative control.
Water, we knew water did not contain any biomolecules
42. Your positive control for starch turns black when tested with iodine. When testing three different
substances (Unknown A, B & C), only “Unknown C” turned black when tested with iodine. What can
you conclude about all three Unknowns? A and B do not contain starch. Unknown C does contain
starch
43. What biomolecule does 42 test?Carbohydrate
44. Be able to identify the following scientists and their important discoveries:
•
•
•
•
Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase- discovered that DNA stores genetic information in living
cells
James Watson and Francis Crick- pieced together the structure of DNA
Rosalind Franklin—developed X-ray pictures of DNA
Chargaff- noticed the rules for base pairing (Adenine- Thymine and Cytosine – Guanine)
