glucose, sucrose, corn starch, and cellulose

What is an example of a protien and what does it do? (in the book)

hemoglobin and it carries oxygen through our blood

Why are carbohydrates important? (5 reasons)

huge part of our diets, provide living things with sugars like glucose, fuel plants, make exoskeletons, and are an energy source

Water's polarity gives water ____________ ___________

hydrogen bonding

What is a substance that binds to an enzyme and reduces its activity, thus slowing down a chemical reaction that the enzyme catalyzes?

inhibitor

What does water's polar structure allow it to do?

interact with other water molecules

What is hydrogen bonding?

intermolecular attractions

active site

What is the attraction of water molecules to different molecules; the attraction of particles in one substance for particles in a different substance?

adhesion

What are protiens composed of?

amino acids which are molecules that have a central carbon bonded to four groups: amine group, carboxylic group, hydrogen group, and an R group

What does a chemical equation tell us?

answers to questions of what different reactions produce
