Phospholipids; Triglyceride
True or False: Nucleic Acids store and transmit hereditary, or genetic, information. (TYPE FOR PRACTICE)
True Nucleic Acids store and transmit hereditary, or genetic, information.
Nucleotides consist of what three parts?
A 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate group (-PO4), and a nitrogen base.
What is an unsaturated fat?
A fatty acid in which there is at least one carbon-carbon DOUBLE BOND
What is a saturated fat?
A fatty acid that contains the maximum number of hydrogen atoms. It has SINGLE bonds
What is a monomer?
A monomer is a single molecule. Many monomers connect to make polymers
What is a polymer?
A polymer is a collection of monomers. An example of a polymer is DNA.
The polymers formed by monosaccharides are known as what?
Complex Carbohydrates., or polysaccharides

What are carbohydrates?
They are compounds made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, usually in a ratio of about 1:2:1
Amino Acids are made of what?
They are compounds with an amino group on one side and a carboxyl group on the other side.
When polymers are broken down into monomers, what does your body do with those monomers?
They store them, and use them as energy.
What are phospholipids made of?
Two fatty acids and a phosphate group bound to a glycerol backbone.
