A comprehensive set of quiz questions and answers related to the fundamental differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, the structures and functions of various cellular organelles, the properties of biological macromolecules such as carbohydrates and proteins, and the importance of functional groups in organic molecules. The questions cover a wide range of topics, including the number of valence electrons in different elements, the concept of electronegativity, the formation of covalent bonds, the characteristics of monosaccharides and disaccharides, the structure and function of polysaccharides like cellulose and chitin, the properties and diversity of proteins, and the different levels of protein organization. This document could be a valuable resource for students enrolled in an introductory biology course, as it offers a concise and focused review of the key concepts covered in the first week of the course.

The interactions that molecules can have. Which of the following elements are commonly found as part of biological macromolecules? - ✔✔Oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon Glucose and galactose are monosaccharides (sugars) with the same number of carbons. What else is true about these two sugars? - ✔✔They are both hydrophilic (soluble in water). They have the same molecular formula (C6H12O6). When glucose or galactose are in water, they form either alpha or beta forms. Which is true? - ✔✔Alpha- glucose and beta-glucose have the same molecular formula (C6H12O6).
