front 6 Maltose | back 6 A disaccharide consisting of two glucose molecules bound together. |
front 7 Simple Sugar | back 7 Monosaccharides and disaccharides. |
front 8 Oligosaccharide | back 8 A carbohydrate made up of more than two sugar molecules linked together. |
front 9 Polysaccharide | back 9 A carbohydrate made up of hundreds to thousands of sugar molecules linked together. |
front 10 Starch | back 10 A plant-based polysaccharide. |
front 11 Glycogen | back 11 An animal-based polysaccharide. |
front 12 Iodine is used to test for: | back 12
|
front 13 Positive Control | back 13 Any procedure that is known to produce the desired result. A positive test result means what you are looking for is present. |
front 14 Negative Control | back 14 Any procedure that is known to NOT produce the desired result. A negative test result means what you are looking for is NOT present. |
front 15 Iodine | back 15 Is a yellowish-brown colored liquid that turns blue or black when it contacts starch. |
front 16 Glucose and starch are both carbohydrates. Why does glucose produce a negative result when testing using iodine? | back 16 Iodine only tests for polysaccharides, and glucose is a monosaccaride |

front 19 Monomer | back 19 A substance that is the smallest unit of a category of substances. For example, an amino acid is a monomer of a protein. |
front 20 Polymer | back 20 A substance made up of many units of a common chemical attached to each other. |
front 21 Biuret Reagent | back 21 A light blue reagent that tests for protein |

front 23 Lipid | back 23 A macromolecule made up of dozens to hundreds of molecules of mostly carbon and hydrogen. |
front 24 Cholesterol | back 24 A lipid with a structure containing over 20 carbon atoms configured into four rings |
front 25 Phospholipid | back 25 A lipid made up of a three-carbon glycerol molecule with a phosphate group and two fatty acids |
front 26 Triglyceride | back 26 A lipid made up of a three-carbon glycerol molecule with three fatty acid chains attached to it |
front 27 Fatty Acids | back 27 Long chains of carbon with hydrogen attached, making them nonpolar molecules |
front 28 Saturated Fatty Acid | back 28 A chain of carbon atoms using only single carbon-to-carbon bonds with hydrogen atoms attached to the carbon atoms |
front 29 Unsaturated Fatty Acid | back 29 A chain of carbon atoms that contain one (monounsaturated) or more (polyunsaturated) double bonds between carbons with hydrogen atoms attached to the carbon atoms |
