Carbohydrates—provide the body with an immediate source of energy Carbohydrates—composed of amino acids bound together with peptide bonds Proteins—have three forms: monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides Proteins—make up the bulk of the plasma membrane of cells Lipids—structural components of hair, fingernails, and claws
Carbohydrates—provide the body with an immediate source of energy
When a car burns gasoline, much of the energy is released in the form of heat. Which of the following best describes this process in relation to the first law of thermodynamics?
Energy is conserved. Energy can be changed from one form to another.Correct All energy comes from the sun. Energy is often destroyed. Energy is always used up in reactions.
Digestion of energy nutrients requires specific enzymes for each molecule. Which of the following enzymes is incorrectly matched with its corresponding molecule? Lactose-lactase Fats-lipase Starch-amylase Sucrose-maltase
Sucrose-maltase
The second law of thermodynamics states that
chemical energy is readily converted into solar energy. during the transfer of energy, some energy is lost as heat.Correct ATP is the only form of energy used by the cell. energy is always conserved. cellular activities require little ATP to function.
If there were no solar energy, humans would not be affected because they rely on chemical energy. Group starts
false
