What is ATP?
A form of energy that cells can use.
A type of long term storage
A macromolecule used to maintain cell structures
Allows the cell to move
What are the building blocks of proteins?
Amino acids
Nucleic acids
DNA
RNA
What are DNA and RNA made out of?
Nucleotides
Amino Acids
Proteins
Cells
Fats are examples of what macromolecule?
Lipids
ATP
DNA
Carbohydrates
Which macromolecule is used for long-term energy storage?
Lipids
ATP
Carbohydrates
Proteins
Which molecule is responsible for short-term energy storage?
ATP
Fats
Lipids
Cells
DNA and RNA are made out of
Nucleotides
Proteins
Lipids
Amino Acids
What is the function of proteins?
Provide structure and function for the cell
Store DNA
Store RNA
Stores energy
Which molecule stores genetic information?
DNA
Amino acids
Proteins
Nucleotides
What is the function of carbohydrates?
Provides quick/short-term energy storage
Provides slow, long-term energy storage
A structure used to create proteins
A structure used to create amino acids
Describe the flow of genetic information
DNA -> RNA -> Proteins
RNA -> DNA -> Proteins
Proteins -> RNA -> DNA
RNA -> Proteins -> DNA
DNA is transcribed into RNA. If they both carry the same information, why is RNA needed to make proteins?
DNA cannot leave the nucleus for safety purposes
Since DNA and RNA are the same molecule, RNA is not needed
RNA is not allowed to leave the nucleus
DNA becomes destroyed after proteins are made.
Where is energy stored in ATP, fats, and carbohydrates?
In the bonds of the molecules
Inside of the atoms of the molecule
In the DNA that codes for fats and carbohydrates
Neither molecule stores energy
Why is ATP referred to the energy currency of the cell?
All forms of energy must be converted into ATP to be used
Because cells can only use fats as an energy source
Because all forms of energy must be converted into carbohydrates to be used
Because ATP is used to make proteins.
