Questions with Complete verified Solutions
organic molecules - ANSWER molecule containing carbon atoms; carbs, proteins, lipids
inorganic molecules - ANSWER chemical substance that is not organic; water, acids, bases
dehydration synthesis - ANSWER chemical reaction in which water is formed during
formation of a complex molecule
hydrolysis - ANSWER chemical reaction in which water is used during the breakdown of
a complex molecule
carbohydrate - ANSWER an organic molecule composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen
lipids - ANSWER any of a class of organic compounds that are fatty acids or their derivatives and
are insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. They include many natural oils, waxes,
and steroids
protein - ANSWER organic molecule composed of one or more chains of amino acid monomers
nucleic acid - ANSWER an organic molecule composed of nucleotide monomers; in DNA
and RNA. These store genetic information in the cell
Triglycerides - ANSWER lipid providing long-term energy storage in adipose connective tissue;
composed of glycerol and three fatty acids
phospholipids - ANSWER lipid that form bilayers of the plasma membrane
,steroids - ANSWER groups of lipids including bile salts, cholesterol, and some
hormones; molecule is composed of four attached hydrocarbon rings
tryglycerides - ANSWER provide your body with energy, but their main function is to store
energy for later use. The food you eat contains calories in the form of carbohydrates,
protein and fat.
steroid - ANSWER hormones help control metabolism, inflammation, immune functions, salt
and water balance, development of sexual characteristics, and the ability to withstand
illness and injury.
amino acid - ANSWER organic molecule used to build proteins; contains both an amine group
and carboxyl group
enzymes - ANSWER Many of these types of reactions (synthesis, decomposition, exchange,
and reversible) need what to speed up the reaction with lower amounts of energy
dna - ANSWER deoxyribose with an additional OH
rna - ANSWER ribose
DNA - ANSWER appears as a Double Helix. It appears like a twisted ladder. Within the
structures are rungs represented by Four-letter alphabet. The spiral is also made up of sugar
and phosphate
RNA - ANSWER a spiraling thread with bases sticking out towards the center. It also consists
of sugar, phosphates and nitrogenous bases

Cell membrane - ANSWER Controls what moves in and out of the cell,Selectively permeable,
outer limit of a cell
endoplasm - ANSWER fluid part of the cytoplasm
, cytosol - ANSWER liquid surrounded by cell membrane
anatomy - ANSWER The study of structure and the relationships between structures is
_______________.
physiology - ANSWER The study of the function of body parts is _______________.
Organelles, cells, tissues, organs, organ systems - ANSWER What are the levels of
organization and define each.
organelle - ANSWER cell structures that carry out special functions in a cell
cell - ANSWER basic unit of structure & function in a living thing
Tissue - ANSWER A group of similar cells that are organized to do a specific job.
