Biology chemical reactions chapter 6 section 2&4 k

determine the components of carbohydrates and proteins

(CH2O)n and (-NH2)

section 4: If there is an unknown substance found on a meteorite is determined to contain no trace of carbon , can scientists conclude that there is life at the meteorites origin?

No scientists can not conclude this because all life has carbon.

a paragraph about the energy diagrams in real life to a roller coaster

The energy is released at the upturn and downturn. The most active energy is at the top of the roller coaster. The cart starts as the reactants and no energy has yet released , then at the end of the ride is the products is when all of our energy is released. The End.

section 2 Identify the parts of this chemical reaction A+B--> AB

This is balancing the reaction, therefore reactants are on the left of the arrow and the products are on the right.

discuss the importance of amino acid order to a proteins function

amino acids make up proteins

summerize given large # of proteins in the body , explain why the shape of an enzyme is important to its function

enzymes need to attach easily , takes up less space , a ring or branched molecule is best to have.

for the following chemicals reaction: label the reactants and products then balance the chemical equation. _H2O2-> _H2O+_O2

reactants = H2O2 Products= H2O+_O2 balanced = 2H2O2--> 2H2O+1O2 (technially theres a 1)

draw a carbohydrates ring ....

there wasn't a chain picture so you might want to look those up ....

describe the importance of enzymes to living organisms

they are essential to life and in the real world it's found in saliva and helps anyone break down food to digest.

explain why the # of atoms of reactants must = the # of atoms of products formed.

they must be the same so they can be balanced to each other.

compare the types of biological macromolecules and their functions

type...... EX...... function ------------------------- carbohydrates .... Bread...... -stores energy Lipids..................bees' wax....-stores energy,- provides barriers proteins............Hemoglobin....transports substances, -speed reactions, - provide structural support, - makes hormones Nucleic acids. ... DNA ...... store and communicate genetic info.
