UKY BIO 152 EXAM 1 VOCAB WITH
CORRECT ANSWERS 2025
macromolecule correct answers >> big molecules that make
up the structure of cells
monomer correct answers >> building blocks of
macromolecules
polymer correct answers >> molecule made up of many
parts
carbohydrate correct answers >> macromolecules that
provide energy to the body through glucose
lipid correct answers >> hydrophobic molecules. lipids called
fats are where energy is stored. also provide insulation from
environment for plants and animals
protein correct answers >> structural, regulatory, contractile,
or protective. serve in transport, storage, or membranes. may be
toxins or enzymes. polymers of amino acids arranged in a linear
sequence
nucleic acid correct answers >> carry the genetic blueprint
of a cell and instructions for the auctioning of the cell
, condensation reaction correct answers >> water is produced
and polymer is put together
hydrolysis reaction correct answers >> water is consumed
and polymer is broke apart
hydrophilic molecule correct answers >> water loving
molecule
hydrophobic molecule correct answers >> water fearing
molecule
amphipathic molecule correct answers >> molecule that has
hydrophilic and hydrophobic features
metabolism correct answers >> the combination of chemical
reactions that take place within it
anabolism correct answers >> process that builds complex
molecules out of simple ones and requires energy
catabolism correct answers >> process that breaks down
couples chemicals into simpler ones and is associated with energy
release
enzyme correct answers >> molecules that catalyze
biochemical reactions
