is the term for the amount of energy that needs to be added for a chemical reaction to start

is the term for the amount of energy in each reactant

helps the enzyme to increase the rate of the reaction

is the term for the amount of energy released by the reaction after it starts

What are the 4 types of carbon-based molecules in organisms?

nucleic acids, proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates

carbohydrates, lipids, fatty acids, and monomers

polymers, monomers, acids, bases

adhesion, cohesion, evaporative cooling, and high specific heat

Changes in the pH, temperature, enzyme concentration, and/or substrate concentration can negatively affect

the efficient function of an enzyme or catalyzed reaction

the activation energy of chemical reactions

the bond energy released by reactants in a reaction

the polarity of water used for evaporative cooling

Which of the following is NOT true of atoms?

They are composed of molecules.

They can combine with other atoms.

An atom becomes negatively charged by

losing a proton gaining a neutron

What determines the chemical properties of an atom?

Number of electrons in the outside shell

The number of protons in the nucleus

The number of protons in the outside shell

The number of electrons in the nucleus

Water is essential for life. Its special properties make water the single most important molecule in plant life. Which of the following properties of water enables it to move from the roots to the leaves of plants?

Water exhibits cohesive behavior

Water is able to moderate temperature

Why does water move from the roots to the leaves of plants?

Capillary action pulls the water molecules like a chain

Water's cohesion causes it to "pull" towards the leaves

A water strider can skate along the top of a pond because:

Hydrogen bonds result in water cohesion (surface tension)

Covalent bonds result in water cohesion

Water striders have adapted to take advantage of water cohesion

Why does ice stay at the top of oceans instead of sinking to the bottom?

Ice is less dense than liquid water

Ice is colder than liquid water

Ice is more dense than liquid water

Ice is warmer than liquid water

As water freezes, it expands and its density decreases.

As water freezes, air becomes trapped between the hydrogen bonds of water molecules.

As water freezes, it takes up more hydrogen from the atmosphere, causing it to have greater buoyancy (floating ability).

As water freezes, it takes up more oxygen from the atmosphere, causing it to have greater buoyancy.

Water is polar because:

The unequal sharing of electrons gives the water molecule a slight negative charge near its oxygen atom and a slight positive charge near its hydrogen atoms.

The molecule has two poles, at which it is colder than the other regions of the molecule.

The unequal sharing of electrons gives the water molecule a slight negative charge near its hydrogen atoms and a slight positive charge near its oxygen atom.

How can you tell the difference in the structure of carbohydrates and lipids?

Both have Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. Lipids have ring structures and Carbohydrates have line structures

Both have Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. Carbohydrates have ring structures and Lipids have line structures

Carbohydrates have more carbon than Lipids

Both have Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. Lipids additionally have Nitrogen

Some proteins catalyze biochemical reactions. If a genetic defect prevented a protein catalyst from being produced, which of the following do you predict would happen in the cell?

The reaction the protein catalyzes would proceed very slowly or not at all.

The cell would find a different type of protein to catalyze the reaction.

The reaction the protein catalyzes would only occur in some places in the cell.

The reverse reaction of the one the protein catalyzes would begin to proceed.

As food travels through the digestive system, it is exposed to a variety of pH levels. The stomach has a pH of 2 due to the presence of hydrochloric acid (HCl), and the small intestine has a pH ranging from 7 to 9. HCl converts pepsinogen into pepsin, an enzyme that digests proteins in the stomach. Which of the following most likely happens to pepsin as it enters the small intestine?

Its shape changes to engulf large proteins

Its activity increases to ingest more proteins
