Polysaccharides - ANS-Another name for the polymer of carbohydrates
Glycerol - ANS-Which of the following is not made from long chain of glucose?
Cellulose - ANS-Which polysaccharides consists of many long chains of glucose?
Hydrophobic - ANS-Lipids are all
Hydrophobic Interior, Hydrophilic exterior - ANS-Which combination describes the plasma
membrane?
A glycerol head and up to three fatty acid tails - ANS-What is the basic structure of most lipids?
Saturated Fats - ANS-Which would have the highest concentration of C-H bonds?
The side group - ANS-What gives an amino acid its unique chemical properties?
The sequence of amino acids - ANS-To a large extent, a protein's function is dependent upon its
shape. What determines a protein's shape?
Energy Storage - ANS-Which of the following is not a typical function of proteins?
The active site becoming distorted, blocked, incorrect folding of the amino acid chain
(ALL OF THE ABOVE) - ANS-What might lead to a protein that does not functions properly?
Regulates transport of substance between the nucleus and the cytoplasm - ANS-What is the
role of the nuclear membrane?
Lysosome - ANS-Which organelle functions to break down and recycle large molecules?
Mitochondria - ANS-Select the cellular structure that can be found in both plant and animal
cells?
The Plasma Membrane - ANS-Which structure selectively regulates the transport of substances
into and out of a plant cell
All cell (animal, plant, and bacteria have plasma membrane) - ANS-Which type of cell, if any,
does not have a plasma membrane?
2 - ANS-How many layers of phospholipids make up the plasma membrane?
