BIOL 1201 Chapter : Ch 5 7 Review
Document Summary
Which of the following is always true of an amino acid and starch: both contain nitrogen, both contain oxygen-o in carboxyl group of amino acid, starch-carbs, both are polymers, both are hydrophobic, both are found in proteins. If three molecules of a fatty acid that has the formula c16h32o2 are joined to a molecule of glycerol (c3h8o3), then the resulting molecule would have the formula: c48h96o6, c48h98o8, c51h98o6, c51h106o8, c51h104o9. Large organic molecules are usually assembled by polymerization of a few kinds of simple subunits. Which is the following is an exception to this statement: steroid polymerization = condensation, cellulose- glycocidic, dna-phosphodiester, phospholipid-ester, protein-peptide (condensation reaction) Altering which of the following levels of structural organization of a protein could alter its function: primary, secondary, tertiary, only a and c, a, b, and c. Function changes when structure changes and all structures can change.
