Question

Matching: monomer polymer emulsifier polypeptide phospholipid protein polysaccharide starch cellulose chitin glycogen glucose saturated fat ATP unsaturated fat hydrophilic hydrophobic amino acid nucleotide triglyceride _______ The subunit or building block of a polymer _______ A large molecule made of many monomers: ex. polysaccharide _______ A molecule that can suspend lipids such as oil in water _______ Water fearing; a hydrophobic molecule does not dissolve in water _______ Water loving; a hydrophilic molecule can dissolve in water _______ A long chain of amino acids joined with peptide bonds _______ The monomer of a protein; chains of these form polypeptides _______ Along chain of monosaccharides or single sugars; ex. starch, glycogen, chitin, cellulose _______ A 6-carbon monosaccharide that is the monomer for many polysaccharides; it is the fuel for cellular respiration and is the product of photosynthesis _______ Polysaccharide used by plants to build cell walls; monomer is glucose _______ Polysaccharide stored in liver and muscles; used by animals for quick energy; monomer is glucose _______ Polysaccharide used by plants as a food reserve; monomer is glucose _______ Polysaccharide used by arthropods to make exoskeletons and fungi to make cell walls; monomer is glucose _______ A lipid made of a glycerol and 3 fatty-acid chains; forms fats and oils _______ Triglyceride with as many hydrogen as possible in its fatty acid chains; forms solids at room temperature. _______ Triglyceride some double bonds between carbons in fatty acid chains as hydrogen has been lost; forms oils at room temperature _______ Monomer of DNA and RNA. _______ Large, complex molecule made of 1 or more polypeptides _______ A single nucleotide that is the cell's primary energy carrier _______ These molecules form the basic framework of a cell membrane
