They can occur within a single molecule. e. are strong attractive forces between hydrogen atoms and negatively charged atoms.e. are strong attractive forces between hydrogen atoms and negatively charged atoms.
The following diagram illustrates the example of __________________.a. peptide bonds b. 2 amino acids are becoming a protein c. hydrolysisd. dehydration synthesis e. two sugar molecules combine to form a monosaccharide D. dehydration synthesis Glycogen _____________________. a. contains the genetic information found in cells. b. helps to protect vital organs from damage. c. is the form animal starch is configured as.d. serves as a structural component of human cells. e. forms the regulatory molecules known as enzymes. c. is the form animal starch is configured as. _____________ are molecules that contain primarily carbons and hydrogens linkedtogether by nonpolar covalent bonds. a. hydrocarbons
c. carboxyl :: amino d. nucleotide :: phsphate e. fatty acid :: glycerolc. carboxyl :: amino
A positively charged inorganic molecule is classified as a __________. cation All of the following statements are true except. a. a proton is another name for a hydrogen atom that has lost its electron b. hydrogen bonds easily dissociate in a solution c. hydrogen bonds have a slightly negative charge in solution d. covalent bonds may be polar or non-polar e. covalent bonds are relatively strong c. hydrogen bonds have a slightly negative charge in solution
Hydrogen bonding between the amino hydrogen of one amino acid and the carboxyloxygen of another is responsible for ____________ protein structure. (spell it out - don't use a number) secondary

Treu or False: Acids are proton donors.True
True or False: Activation of proteins occurs when a ligand binds and results in signaltransduction that induces a cascade of biochemical pathways. True
false
Which of the following is an example of negative feedback? A. During an infection, the body temperature set point is increased. The hypothalamuscommunicates to skeletal muscles to shiver and to blood vessels to decrease blood flow to the skin, causing a rise in body temperature. B. Consumption of caffeine increases urine output, causing dehydration. C. In case of a blood clot, platelets release ADP, which in turn stimulates plateletaggregation, releasing more ADP from platelets.
D. If the blood pressure rises above the normal levels, then this change in bloodpressure is detected by major arteries' baroreceptors, which send signals to the brain. Further, regions of the brain send signals to nerves controlling heart and blood vessels,which results in slower heartbeats with an increased diameter of blood vessels that in turn reduce the blood pressure. E. During delivery, contractions of the uterus push the baby toward the cervix.Receptors in the cervix detect the pressure brought by the baby and trigger the release of a hormone called oxytocin. The released oxytocin causes stronger contractions of theuterus, pushing more on the baby, increasing the pressure, and increasing oxytocin. The cycle repeats until the baby is delivered from the mother. D. If the blood pressure rises above the normal level, then the increase is detected bybaroreceptors present in the major arteries which send signals to the brain. Further, corresponding regions of the brain send signals to the nerves controlling heart andblood vessels and as a result the heart beats slower, the diameter of the blood vessels increases which collectively decreases the blood pressure.
Changes in the external or internal environment alter the _______, which is detected bythe _______, and that information is sent to the integrating center which then determines an action for the _________. a. sensor : effector : set point b. regulated variable : guard cell : set point c. error signal : regulated variable : effector d. effector : set point : regulated variable e. regulated variable : sensor : effector e. regulated variable : sensor : effector Lisinopril is a medication that lowers high blood pressure back to within a desired rangeof function.
