1. lattice crystal allows ice to float in water
2. What has cohesive and adhesive prop- water
erties?
3. What allows water to act as a versatile polarity
solvent?
4. results of polarity of water hydrogen bonding, HIGH specific
heat value, versatile solvent prop-
erties
5. Carbohydrates long chains, or polymers, of sugars
6. purpose of carbohydrates: storage, structure, and energy
7. form the backbone of DNA and RNA Carbohydrates
8. Lipids fatty acids, phospholipids, and
steroids
9. Fatty Acids saturated and unsaturated fats
10. saturated fats contain no double bonds, are solid
at room temp, cardiovascular prob-
lems
11. unsaturated fats have one or double bond, liquid at
room temp
12. Phospholipids two fatty acids of varying length
bonded to a phosphate group
13. Phospholipids qualities can organize in a way that creates
