What type of polysaccharide is
1 specific heat capacity 2
glycogen?
3 Temperature 4 Phospholipids
Don't know?
Terms in this set (119)
specific heat capacity energy needed to raise 1g of substance by 1C
, Mass number, atomic mass, atomic Mass number: # of protons + neutrons
number Atomic number: # number of protons
Atomic Mass: average mass, accounting for
isotopes
Heat of vaporization amount of heat absorbed for 1g of liquid to
become gas
Calorie amount of heat to raise 1g of water 1C
Temperature average kinetic energy of the molecules
Transpiration The evaporation of water from stomata in plant
leaves, creating a force that pulls more water
upward from the roots through the xylem.
Capillary Action Upward movement via narrow tubes (like xylem)
without any external force, caused by cohesion
(water sticking to water) and adhesion (water
sticking to the tube walls).
Evaporative cooling the surface of remaining liquid = more cool + less
kinetic energy bc the hottest molecules = more
likely to evaporate
neutrons/protons mass dalton
What type of bond connects fatty Ester linkage.
acids to glycerol in lipids?
