Formation of hydrogen bonds requires hydrogen atoms and what else?

polar covalent bonds

A lipid with four sites lacking hydrogen saturation is a

polyunsaturated lipid

Which organic molecules form the major structural materials of the body?

protons and neutrons

A patient voices concern that her normal cholesterol level is dangerous. "I eat no cholesterol at all. That stuff is toxic!" she declares. What is your best response?

"A normal cholesterol level is a good thing. Your cells depend on cholesterol to stay healthy, and you can't make vital hormones without it."

Calcium's atomic number is 20. It forms ions with 18 electrons. What is the electrical charge of a calcium ion?

+2

What is the primary energy-transferring molecule in cells?

ATP

in a covalent bond

Atoms share one or more pairs of electrons

Examine the following reactions. Which of the following is true about compound C? Reaction 1 Reaction 2 Reaction 3 Reaction 4 A + B → C + D → E + F → G + H

C is the product of reaction 1 and a reactant for reaction 2

How do ions form ionic bonds?

Ions of opposite electrical charges are attracted to each other to balance the charges.

Think about a 10% saline solution (saline refers to salt.). Which of the following is a correct statement?

It contains 10% solute and 90% solvent.

Why can dehydration be such a life-threating event?

It significantly alters the ratio of body water (solvent) to dissolved substances (solutes), such as sodium ions.

what's the difference between kinetic and potential energy?

Kinetic energy is energy in action, while potential energy is stored energy.

Which of the following is an example of a decomposition reaction?

MgO2 → Mg + O2 - happens when a larger molecule is broken down into smaller molecules

Which of the following is NOT a difference between a compound and a mixture?

Mixtures are homogeneous while compounds are heterogeneous.

Atoms of oxygen have a total of 8 electrons. Are these atoms stable, and why or why not?

No, because the atoms have only 6 valence electrons, but need 8 for stability

Blood loss due to a moderate hemorrhage has several adverse effects on patient wellbeing. Why would administering IV fluids alone not be sufficient to return a patient to health?

Oxygen-carrying red blood cells lost along with the fluid component must also be replaced

Which of the following is a FALSE statement about carbohydrates?

The chemical composition of carbohydrates includes two oxygens and one hydrogen for every carbon present.

Which of the following statements regarding atoms is true?

The reactivity of an atom is based on the number of electrons in its outer valance shell.

Which of the following is not a result of hydrogen bonds?

Two hydrogen atoms join together to form a molecule of hydrogen gas

Water acts to dissolve molecules in the body. How does water dissolve the salt (NaCl) in your mouth from a salty pretzel?

Water acts as a solvent because the partial negative charge on the oxygen in water attracts sodium, while the partial positive charge on hydrogen attracts chloride. This results in the separation of sodium from chloride, thus breaking the ionic bond.

In plasma, a typical body fluid, protein floating around would be considered to be which of the following?

a solute, specifically both a colloid and an electrolyte

Which of the following best describes an isotope?

a structural variation in which different atoms of the same element have different numbers of neutrons

What is an ion?

an atom that has either gained or lost electron(s)

an enzyme may no longer function properly

Which of the following would represent the attraction between an anion and a cation?

an ionic bond

Consider the following chemical reaction. The figure shows the interconversion of glucose and glycogen. The forward process is catalyzed by insulin, and the reverse one by glucagon.

The process of building up large molecules from small components is a(n)

anabolic process

Which four elements comprise approximately 96% of our body weight?

carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen.

When your muscles contract to move your body, such as during walking, work is done, and work requires energy. Based on the Law of Conservation of Energy, from where does this energy come?

chemical energy

Electrolytes are charged particles called ions that are dissolved in body fluids. Which of the following ions would be considered a major anion in the body?

chloride
