  1. Explain why water has a high heat capacity. Why is this important for life? • Explain why liquid water is more dense than ice. Why is this important for life? • Differentiate between acids and bases. • What are buffers used for? • List all the polymers of the learned groups of macromolecules. Match up the appropriate monomers with each polymer. • Differentiate between structural and stereoisomers and enantiomers.

  2. Identify the following molecules and answer the questions • Name this monomer. • List its components • Name the polymers. • List two functions of this monomer. • Is this polar or nonpolar? • Name the reaction that combines the monomers to form polymers

  3. What main group of macromolecules does this belong to? • Which subgroup? • What specific learned macromolecule? • How do you know? • List the functions of the subgroup. • What is the reaction that breaks the polymer into monomers?

  4. What is this macromolecule? • Name the monomers • Name the components of the monomers. • List the levels of structure involved. • List 5 functions of this polymer

  5. What major group of macromolecules does this belong to? • What is the polarity of this molecule? • List the monomers • List 4 functions. • Name a subgroup within this main group that has a different polarity.

  6. How does enzyme structure fit to perform its function? • What are inhibitors? How can they be used in enzyme regulation. • List three other ways of regulating enzyme activity. • Draw a picture of ATP. What is its function? • How does ATP perform its function? • State the second law of thermodynamics and explain how it determines chemical reactions in living organisms. • What is the difference between cofactors and coenzymes. What basic nutrients would be appropriate for each group?

  7. List the homeostatic steps of thermoregulation. • List the homeostatic steps of blood glucose regulation. • Differentiate between positive and negative feedback mechanisms. Name an example of each. • List the four basic types of animal tissues. • Describe the structure and function of epithelial tissues. • Describe the structure and function of muscle tissues. Name their types.

  8. Relate the structure of bone and blood to their function. • Differentiate between the digestive system of a cnidarian and an arthropod. • List the important nutrients that we need to take in. • Explain how the structure of the stomach fits to perform its function. • Explain how the structure of the small intestine fits to perform its function.
