dairy_______.
16. Amino acids are linked by __peptide bonds___________.
17. The __”R”______ group attached to an amino acid determines what kind of amino acid is
present of the 20.
18. __Amino_____ and ______carboxyl__ functional groups are contained within an amino
acid.
19. The carbonyl functional group when located on the end of the compound is called
___carbonyl end (Aldehyde)____________.
20. Proteins will not function properly if they have the wrong __shape__________.
21. An ___enzyme__________ is made of proteins and catalyzes reactions
22. Monomers are linked together by the process of _____polymerization__________.
23. Polymers are broken apart by the process of ___hydrolysis________________.
24. The monomer of a nucleic acid is called a ____nucleotide_______________________.
25. The three parts that make up a nucleotide include _____phosphate group_________,
_______5 carbon sugar____________ and ____nitrogenous base__________.
26. Carbon can bond with so many other things because it has ____4____ valence electrons.
27. Briefly describe each level of structure that results in a 3-dimensional protein
1. Primary – the chain of amino acids that make up the polypeptide
2. Secondary – the chain of amino acids fold to form pleated sheets and an alpha helix.
Hydrogen bonding holds pleats and helix in place
3. Tertiary – sheets and helices fold to form the three dimensional shape of the polypeptide
4. Quaternary – multiple, folded polypeptide subunits combine to form the complete protein
28. Draw an amino acid and label the three main parts that comprise the amino acid.
R Group
29. Explain why people are lactose intolerant. Be sure to include lactose, lactase, and
disaccharide in your response.
People who are lactose intolerant cannot digest the sugar known as lactose. Lactose is a
disaccharide found in milk and products derived from milk. The lactose intolerant person cannot
breakdown lactose into two monosaccharides because they do not have the enzyme lactase.
Lactose passes through their system causing digestion problems.
30. Differentiate between starch, glycogen and cellulose.
Starch – polysaccharide, consisting of many straight chain glucose units connected together.
How plants store energy and excess sugars.
Glycogen – polysaccharide, many glucose units connected together in branched chains, energy
storage molecule for animals, stored in liver and also found in muscle cells.
Cellulose - polysaccharide, many glucose units connected in straight chains and laterally
connected through hydrogen bonding. Primarily found in plants, very strong, provides rigidity
and structure. Is the material that comprises the cell wall. Resembles woven material.
31. Look at the images below. Label the following: monosaccharide, disaccharide,
polysaccharide, amino acid, nucleotide, saturated fatty acid, unsaturated fatty acid,
polyunsaturated fatty acid, and triglyceride (fat).
Monosaccharide
polysaccharide (cellulose)
Disaccharide
Amino Acid
Saturated fatty acid
Fat (triglyceride)
Unsaturated fatty acid
Polyunsaturated fatty acid
Nucleotide

Open-ended Question:
9. Proteins are a major part of every living cell and have many different functions within each cell.
Carbohydrates also perform numerous roles in living things.
Part A: Describe the general composition of a protein molecule.
_____Proteins are made from carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen and some have sulfur. These
elements form amino acids. Amino acids form proteins.
Part B: Describe how the structures of proteins differ from the structures of carbohydrates.
______Carbohydrates are in long chains formed by sugars that have bonded together. Proteins
can be in sheets or folded shapes. Carbohydrates only have carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in
them.
Part C: Describe how the functions of proteins differ from the functions of carbohydrates
_________Proteins make up enzymes that speed up reactions in living things. Proteins also
make antibodies, and are responsible for transporting substances into and out of cells.
