1.
Large organic molecules; a molecule containing a very large number of atoms.
2.
Forms polymers by combining monomers by "removing water;" also called "condensation reaction."
3.
Breaks down monomers, separating them by "adding water."
4.
_______ compounds are compounds that contain carbon.
5.
An element with 4 electrons in its outer shell and that can form covalent bonds with as many as 4 other atoms of different elements.
6.
A molecule that can be bonded to other identical monomers to form a polymer.
7.
Substances that have an excess of H+ ions; pH less than 7.
8.
Substances that have an excess of OH- ions; pH greater than 7.
9.
Large molecules made by bonding a series of "building blocks" called monomers.
10.
Measure used to express how basic or acidic a substance is.
11.
What a substance is when it has a pH of 7.
12.
Consists of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen; monomer is a monosaccharide.
13.
Simple sugars; links together to form carbohydrates.
14.
Consists of many (2 or more) linked monosaccharide monomers; can be in linear chains or branched.
15.
2 or more molecules with the same number of element atoms, but are structured differently.
16.
Process when animals break apart carbohydrate polymers to use the carbohydrates for energy.
17.
A macromolecule that consists of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen; its monomers are amino acids.
