Biomolecules, Enzymes, and Photosynthesis B.9(ABC) Day 3 Quiz

Which term is commonly used to refer to the building blocks of proteins?

• Monosaccharides
• Amino acids
• Nucleotides
• Fatty acids

Which biomolecule is the primary source of quick and short-term energy in cells?

• Carbohydrates
• lipids
• proteins
• Nucleic acids

What is the primary function of lipids in energy storage within organisms?

• Lipids are the main source of energy for cellular activities
• Lipids store long-term energy reserves and provide warmth insulation.
• Lipids catalyze chemical reactions to release energy
• Lipids facilitate the transport of energy within cells

Transmembrane proteins span the width of cell membranes. Four types of transmembrane proteins are shown in a section of cell membrane. About two inches although these proteins have different specific functions, they all –

• top chemical reaction within the cell.
• synthesize molecules that signal other cells
• Help the cell interact with its internal environment.
• Remove large waste particles from the cytoplasm of the cell

What is the difference in the function of Carbohydrates and Lipids in regards to energy?

• Carbohydrates serve as long-term energy storage, while lipids provide quick, short-term energy.
• Carbohydrates are primarily used for structural purposes, while lipids act as the primary source of cellular energy.
• Carbohydrates store long-term energy reserves, while lipids are the main source of quick, short-term energy.
• Carbohydrates and lipids both serve as immediate energy sources for cells.

Check all of the correct answers. Which of the following are types of biomolecules?

• Carbohydrates
• Water
• Lipids
• Protein
• Nucleic acids

Which statement best compares a function of protein and lipids in a human cell?

• Proteins provide energy for cellular processes. Lipids catalyze chemical reactions inside the cell.
• Proteins catalyze chemical reactions inside the cell. Lipids allow for the transport of certain molecules into and out of the cell.
• Proteins allow for the transport of certain molecules into and out of the cell. Lipids store genetic information for cells.
• Proteins store genetic information for sales. Lipids provide energy for cellular processes.
