Graded A+
What makes up proteins - .....ANSWER ...✔✔
carbon, hydrogen,oxygen, and nitrogen
What are the functions of Proteins - .....ANSWER
...✔✔ Support, enzymes, transport, defense,
hormones, motion
buffer acid bases - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ maintain acid
base balance blood PH
protein digestion - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ begins in
stomach with pepsin, completed by team of diff
enzymes in the lumen of sm intestines and epithelium
of sm intestines which break polypeptides into small
peptides into amino acids
what makes one amino acid different from another -
.....ANSWER ...✔✔ side chains are different for each
,2|Page
amino acid, which make the amino acids differ in size,
shape, electrical (it helps to determine the molecules
shapes and behaviors
Transamination - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ the process of
transfering an amino group from one compound to
another
deamination - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ removal of the
amino radical from an amino acid or other amino
compound transported to kidneys
denatured/ deanatureation - .....ANSWER ...✔✔
process by which proteins uncoil and lose their shape
and function
essential amino acids - .....ANSWER ...✔✔ Amino
acids that are needed, but cannot be made by the
body; they must be eatin in foods
non essential amino acids - .....ANSWER ...✔✔
amino acids that the body can synthesize on its own;
does not need to get from dietary sources
, 3|Page
levels of protein structure - .....ANSWER ...✔✔
Primary, Secondary, Tertiary, Quaternary
what is a limiting amino acid - .....ANSWER ...✔✔
essential amino acid that is missing or in the smallest
supply in the amino acid pool and is thus responsible
for slowing or halting protein synthesis.
incomplete vs complete proteins - .....ANSWER
...✔✔ complete- contain all the essential amino
acids in proper amounts to support growth
incomplete proteins- missing one or more essential
amino acid
complementary proteins - .....ANSWER ...✔✔
Incomplete proteins that, when combined, provide all
nine amino acids essential for protein synthesis
positive vs negative nitrogen balance - .....ANSWER
...✔✔ Intake of nitrogen versus what's excreted is
the nitrogen balance. Positive nitrogen balance is when
