BIO 181 ASU EXAM 1
CORRECT ANSWERS 2025/2026
3 parts of an amino acid - correct answeramino group, carboxyl group, R
group
amphiphilic - correct answerMolecule with some parts hydrophobic and some
hydrophilic
Constant - correct answerDoes not change value
covalent bond - correct answerChemical bond where outer electrons are
shared between atoms.
Dependent variable is what coordinate - correct answerX axis
Double covalent bond - correct answerTwo pairs of electrons shared
Electronegativety - correct answerChemical property that determines
electrons sharing behavior
Enzymes - correct answerProteins that catalyze chemical reactions, have a
location called active site which binds the substrate that will be chemically
altered
Four structures of a protein - correct answerprimary, secondary, tertiary,
quaternary
Frequency - correct answerThe number of occurrences a data point is found
in a data set
, How do you calculate standard deviation? - correct answerTake a data set and
find the mean of the data set. Subtract the mean from each data point and
square the results. Calculate the variance by dividing sum of squares by
sample size to get average standard deviation. Square root the variance to get
average distance from mean in original units.
Hydrogen bonds - correct answerWeak electrostatic bonds between slightly
positive and slightly negative charges
Hydrophilic - correct answermolecules that are attracted to water.
Hydrophobic - correct answerMolecule repelled by water
Independent variable is what coordinate - correct answerY axis
Maximum - correct answerHighest number in the data set
Mean - correct answerThe average. Calculated by adding all the numbers
together, and dividing by how many numbers in the set. Represented by Greek
letter
Median - correct answerMiddle number in the data set
Michaelis menten curves - correct answera model to explain how the rate of
an enzyme catalyzed reaction depends on concentration of the enzyme and
the substrate
Minimum - correct answerLowest number in the data set
Mode - correct answerThe value that occurs most frequently in a given data
set.
nonpolar covalent bond - correct answerA type of covalent bond in which
electrons are shared equally between two atoms
polar covalent bond - correct answerA covalent bond in which electrons are
not shared equally
