(aks 1a, 1a1)
what do carbohydrates provide us with?
•
what are the building blocks/monomers of carbohydrates?
•
compare monosaccharides, disaccharides, and a polysaccharides.
•
in what form do animals store where in the body?
•
in what form do plants store carbohydrates in their cell walls?
•
sketch a glucose molecule. what is the chemical formula for glucose?
what do lipids provide us with?
•
what are the building blocks/
monomers of lipids?
•
describe the difference between saturated and unsaturated fats?
•
sketch the structural formula for a glycerol molecule and a fatty acid molecule.
what do proteins provide us with?
•
what are the building blocks/monomers of proteins?
•
sketch
an amino acid: label the amino group, carboxyl group, and “r” group.
•
compare a dipeptide and a polypeptide.
•
what is a peptide bond?
compare and contrast dehydration synthesis (condensation) and hydrolysis.
what is the importance of “activation energy” in
metabolic function?
•
define: potential, kinetic, and chemical energy
•
what is the relationship between chemical bonds and potential energy
•
what is the difference between endergonic and exergonic reactions?
why are catalysts important for metabolism and home
ostasis?
•
what is an enzyme?
•
list some characteristics of an enzyme.
•
draw a graph with 1 line showing a reaction without an enzyme catalyst and another line with an enzyme
catalyst.
sketch a model comparing and contrasting
the “lock
-and
-key” and “induced fit” models of enzyme activity.
•
be sure to label and define active site, enzyme substrate complex, reactants and products.
•
be sure to label your model as a dehydration synthesis reaction or hydrolysis reaction.
•
be sure to
“name”
your substrate and
“name”
your enzyme appropriately.
•
you can make up a name!
what are three factors that affect enzyme activity?
•
sketch 3 simple graphs to show how each impacts enzyme activity.
•
what does
denature
mean?
•
what is an enzyme inhibitor?
