Biochem – H Q&A GRADE A
isomer - (correct answer)contains the same chemical formula but has a different
arrangement of the atoms
polymer - (correct answer)a long chain made of many repeating units: DNA, RNA,
proteins, polysaccharide
peptide bond - (correct answer)holds together the primary structure of a protein
glycosidic bond - (correct answer)a bond that holds together carbohydrates
phosphodiester bond - (correct answer)bond type holding together the backbone of
DNA
dehydration synthesis - (correct answer)reaction in which water is removed to build a
bond
hydrolysis - (correct answer)reaction in which a bond is broken by adding water
hydrophobic - (correct answer)nonpolar molecule that does not like water
hydrophilic - (correct answer)a molecule that likes water, will dissolve in water: polar
energy coupling - (correct answer)when the energy product of one process is used to
power an endergonic process
competitive inhibition - (correct answer)a molecule that will get in the active sight and
slow a reaction
