QUESTION 1 Which of the following is not a lipid? Triglycerides Cholesterol Anabolic steroids All of the above are lipids. QUESTION 2 You are a biochemist working for a food manufacturer. You are working to identify a new fat you have discovered in a plant from a rainforest of Brazil. During your investigation, you determine that the fat tends to be a liquid at room temperature, and a biochemical analysis reveals very few hydrogen atoms for the amount of carbon that is present. What kind of fat have you likely discovered? unsaturated saturated hydrophilic None of the above QUESTION 3 Amino acids are joined together through a dehydration synthesis reaction forming a ___________bond. a. peptide b. covalent c. ionic d. both a and b QUESTION 4 Proteins serve many functions within your body. Which of the following are functions served by proteins in your body? Transportation Defense Movement All of the above

1- What characteristic do all lipids share? 2- We covered several functions of proteins. List 3 of them. 3- Based on the suffix, a molecule of "maltose" is most likely what type of macromolecule? 4- Oil hydrogenation can take a liquid lipid and make it solid at room temperature. What is the name of this category of lipid? 5- What will be accomplished by lowering the activation energy of a reaction? In other words, will the reaction proceed more quickly, more slowly, stop completely, or reverse? 6- Penicillin is an inhibitor produced by a fungus in order to kill invading bacteria. It does this by pretending to be the substrate required by the bacterium to build and repair its cell wall. Is this an example of competitive inhibition or noncompetitive inhibition?
