What else can I help you with?
What did Robert Boyle call the groups of atoms that he studied?
he called them molecules
What main elements do proteins carbohydrates lipids and nucleic acids all have in common?
Lipids, proteins, and carbohydrates are all organic compounds. This means they all contain carbon atoms. The general formula for carbohydrates is CH2O meaning there are two hydrogen atoms for every carbon and oxygen atoms. Lipids are composed of an alcohol(ethanol) and a fatty acid. Proteins contain amino acids which are compounds that contain nitrogen.
Matter consists of tiny particles called?
atoms
Define fatty acid?
In chemistry, especially biochemistry, a fatty acid is a carboxylic acid with a long aliphatic tail (chain), which is either saturated or unsaturated. Most naturally occurring fatty acids have a chain of an even number of carbon atoms, from 4 to 28. Fatty acids are usually derived from triglycerides orphospholipids. When they are not attached to other molecules, they are known as "free" fatty acids.
How many elements in insulin?
Six carbon atoms, twelve hydrogen atoms, six oxygen atoms, so twenty-four total atoms in one glucose molecule.
Is hydrogen present in amino acids?
Yes Amino acids are made up of an amino group which has 2 hydrogen atoms and a carboxyl group which also has 2 hydrogen atoms. It then has other groups attached to it which could have many many more hydrogen atoms added to it
What groups of atoms are common to all amino acids?
The various amino acids are distinguished by the substitution on the central carbon atom. All amino acids feature an amine group and a carboxylic acid.
How does the number of hydrogen atoms compare to the number of oxygen atoms in amino acid?
In an amino acid, there are typically more hydrogen atoms than oxygen atoms. Amino acids contain one or more amine groups (-NH2) and carboxyl groups (-COOH), both of which contain hydrogen atoms. The number of hydrogen atoms is usually greater than the number of oxygen atoms present in the amino acid molecule.
The r group found in amino acids consists of what?
The R group, or side chain, found in amino acids varies depending on the specific amino acid. It is what distinguishes each amino acid from one another and determines their unique properties. Examples of R groups include methyl, hydroxyl, and carboxyl groups.
What end arrangements of atoms is present in amino acids that also present in fatty acids?
hydrogen and amino acids.
What end arrangement of atoms is present in amino acids that is also present in fatty acids?
hydrogen and amino acids.
What are three groups of atoms that make up amino called?
carboxyl group, amino group, side chain
What are made of amino acids?
amino acids are made of acarboxylic group as the head which is hydrophilic.tail is made of hydrocarbon chain which is hydrophobic.in other words amino acids are made of carbon atoms,hydrogen atoms and oxygen
Which atoms in all of the amino acids frin the amino portion of the molecule?
The atoms in the amino group of all amino acids are nitrogen (N) and hydrogen (H), as the amino group is composed of an amino (-NH2) functional group.
What are the three groups of atoms make up amino acids called?
