atp releases energy when

a phosphate group is remvoed from it.

alcohol

arganic compound with a hydroxyle group attached to one of its carbon atoms

organic compounds contain

carbon and usually other elements

arrange from smallest to largest: polymer, monomer, carbon atom, and macromolecule

carbon atom, monomer, polymer, and macromolecule

organic compound

carbon attoms covalently bonded to othe carbon atoms and to the other elements

functional group

clusters of atoms in most organic compounds influence properties of molecules

a covalent bond formed when two atoms share two pairs of electrons is called a

double bond

polymer

forms from monomers that bond

example of monomer

glucose , fructose, and amino acids

the breakdown of a polymer involves

hydrolysis

an example of a functional group

hydroxide

how would the variety of organic compounds be different if carbon had 7 electrons in its outermost energy level instead of four

it wouldn't be able to form as many compounds

an example of organic compound

lipds and carbs

monomer

simplest form

example of polynomer

starch, dna, rna, atp, testosterones, steriods

explain how a water molecule is procted when glucose and fructose underfo a condensation reaction

the glucose and fructose make water

the number of covalent bonds a carbon atom can form with other atoms is
