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
