Pregunta Respuesta
what is a polymer large complex molecules made form monomer chains
give 2 examples of monomers monosaccharides and amino acids
what do all carbohydrates contain carbon C hydrogen H oxygen O
what are carbohydrates made from monosaccharides (sugars)
give 3 examples of a monosaccharides glucose fructose galactose
what is the difference between alpha and beta glucose the H and OH swap round (alpha = H at the top)
what does an alpha glucose look like remember to number the carbons (C)
describe a condensation reaction when two molecules join to form a new bond, releasing water as they do so. this forms a glycosidic bond
describe hydrolysis when a dissacharide breaks into monosaccarhides
name and describe 2 dissaccharides sucrose - glucose + fructose lactose - glucose + galactose
what is a polysaccharide many monosaccharides joined together with glycosidic bonds, through condensation reactions
how to test for starch add iodine. if it turns blue, there is starch present
what is starch used for energy store in plants, breaks down into glucose
what is starch made from amylose and amylopectin
describe amylose has 1-4 bonds,creates chains
describe amylopectin has 1-4 and 1-6 bonds, creates branched chains and spirals, coils into storage
why is starch good for storage its insoluble so doesn't affect water potential , AND its compact
what is glycogen used for energy storage in animals
describe the structure of glycogen similar to amylopectin, but more branches, its compact, and can release energy really quickly. [1-4 and 1-6 bonds]
describe the structure of cellulose long chains of BETA glucose, linked by hydrogen bonds. has 1-4 bonds, and every other one flips over when bonding.
what is cellulose used for structural support in cells [chains of micro fibrils and fibres, cross over cell wall for support]
what is a tryglyceride one molecule of glycerol with 3 fatty acids joined to it
what is the structure of a fatty acid C, O AND OH with R variable (hydrocarbon tail, which is hydrophobic)
what is the structure of a glycerol
what is an ester bond when glycerol and a fatty acid join, giving off water (H2O)
what is the difference between saturated and un- saturated triglycerides. saturated hydrocarbon tails have no double bonds, whereas un-saturated have at last one double bond
what is a phospholipid similar to a triglyceride but has a phosphate group to replace one of the fatty acids.
what is a phospholipid bilayer 2 layers of phospholipids, with tails facing in, (fatty acids are hydrophobic) and heads facing out (phosphate Is hydrophilic)
what do all proteins have carbon, hydrogen, oxygen AND NITROGEN
what are proteins made of chains of amino acids
how many amino acids are there 20 naturally occurring ones
what is the structure of every amino acid
what is a dipeptide 2 amino acids joined
describe a peptide bond condensation reaction occurs, C joins to N, and gives off H20
describe the primary structure of a protein the sequence of amino acids, in specific order
describe the secondary structure of a protein hydrogen bonds form to give either an alpha helix or a beta pleated sheet
describe the tertiary structure of a protein structure is folded further to form a 3D protein, and other bonds are formed (disulphide, ionic etc)
describe the quaternary structure of a protein final 3D shape, when multiple polypeptides bond together
what are some examples of how proteins are used collagen, antibodies, haemoglobin, insulin
describe haemoglobin 4 chains (2 alpha, 2 beta) highly soluble outside = hydrophilic inside = hydrophobic
what is a reducing sugar a monosaccahride
what is a non reducing sugar sucrose
how to test for reducing sugars add benedict's heat watch colour change from blue to red (if reducing sugars are present)
what is magnification how zoomed in it is
what is resolution similar to pixilation, smallest distance between 2 particles
how to work out total magnification objective lens * eyepiece lens
what are the resolving power orders centimetre, millimetre, micrometre, nanometre
how to jump between the resolving powers cm - mm = *10 mm - um = *1000 um - mm = *1000
compare light to electron microscope LIGHT - cheap, small, easy to use, no vacuum, but limited resolution and magnification, and stains are often needed to make cells visible ELECTRON - complete opposite!
how to find size of cell use tiny ruler, convert mm to um, count cells across, divide size by number of cells
what is the definition of an artefact something that cant be seen in detail, so is unrecognisable
what is an eyepiece graticule a ruler inside the eyepiece, which needs to be adjusted when the lense is changed
how to work out magnification factor magnification = image/actual REMEMBER TO CONVERT IMAGE SIZE INTO UM (MICROMETERS)
what is a eukaryotic cell a cell that has a true nucleus
list all of the membrane bound organelles found in a eukaryotic cell nucleus, ribosomes, Golgi body, endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes, vacuole, mitochondria, cytoskeleton
what are the functions of each organelle
compare eukaryotic to prokaryotic
