Macromolecules UPDATED Actual Exam
Questions and CORRECT Answers
peptide - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔Short chain of amino acids linked by peptide bonds
peptide bond - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔The chemical bond that forms between the
carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amino group of another amino acid, covalent bonds
Protein - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔An organic compound that is made of one or more
chains of amino acids and that is a principal component of all cells
amino acids - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔a simple organic compound containing both a
carboxyl (—COOH) and an amino (—NH2) group, building blocks of protein.
Enzyme - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔a substance produced by a living organism that acts as
a catalyst to bring about a specific biochemical reaction.
Substrate - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔reactant of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction
Active site of an enzyme - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔the region of an enzyme that attaches
to a substrate
activation energy - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔the minimum amount of energy required to
start a chemical reaction
lock and key model - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔The model of the enzyme that shows the
substrate fitting perfectly into the active site
Catalyst (enzyme) - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔A substance that increases the rate of a
chemical reaction without being changed itself, lowers the activation energy needed for a
reaction
, Competitive inhibition of enzymes - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔occurs when a substance
other than the substrate binds to the active site of an enzyme
non-competitive inhibitor - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔A substance that reduces the activity
of an enzyme by binding to a location remote from the active site, changing its conformation
so that it no longer binds to the substrate.
polarity of water - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔has polar covalent bonds; H is partially
positive, O is partially negative
Solute - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔A substance that is dissolved in a solution.
Solvent - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔A liquid substance capable of dissolving other
substances
Solution - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔A mixture that forms when one substance dissolves
another.
capilary action is a result of water molecules: - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔having a strong
cohesive force and attaching to the surrounding vessel walls
Surface tension (of water) - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔the intermolecular hydrogen bonds
between molecules of water at the surface.
Cohesion - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔an attraction between molecules of the same
substance
Adhesion - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔force of attraction between different kinds of
molecules
hydrogen bond - CORRECT ANSWER- ✔✔Attraction between a slightly positive hydrogen
atom and a slightly negative atom. Weak.
