What part of the DNA backbone do nitrogen bases bond to?
Nitrogen bases in DNA bond to the deoxyribose sugar molecules that make up the DNA backbone. The bond between the sugar and the base is a covalent bond known as a glycosidic bond.
What bond type holds the sugar-phosphate backbone together?
phosphoester linkages
What is ester bond?
Ester bond is formed when the carboxyl group of fatty acid combine with the hydroxyl group of glycerol.
What is the chemical bond connecting one nucleotide with the next one along the nucleic acid chain?
The chemical bond connecting one nucleotide with the next one along the nucleic acid chain is a phosphodiester bond. This bond forms between the phosphate group of one nucleotide and the sugar group of the next nucleotide, creating a backbone of alternating sugar and phosphate groups in the nucleic acid chain.
Polyunsaturated fatty acid contains more than one?
Polyunsaturated fatty acids contain more than one double bond in their chemical structure. These double bonds create kinks in the fatty acid chain, which contributes to their liquid state at room temperature. Examples of polyunsaturated fatty acids include omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids.
What is the structure of a triglyceride, with one fatty acid bound to a glycerol backbone?
A triglyceride with one fatty acid bound to a glycerol backbone has a structure where the fatty acid is attached to one of the three hydroxyl groups on the glycerol molecule. This forms an ester bond between the fatty acid and the glycerol, creating a molecule with a glycerol backbone and one fatty acid chain attached.
What makes up lipids?
Glycerol forms the backbone of a triglyceride. Three free-swinging fatty acid chains bond to it, forming a triglyceride, the most common type of lipid.
What is the name of bond present in lipids?
The primary bond present in lipids is the ester bond. It connects the fatty acids to the glycerol backbone in triglycerides, phospholipids, and glycolipids.
What is meant by single or a double bond in fatty acid?
fatty acids containig single bond contains more hydrogens and are saturated and fatty acids containing double bond are unsaturated and have less hydrogen then single bond containig fatty acids
What is the most common bond in a lipid?
a non-polar covalent bond
What is the relationship between a phosphate base and sugar in the structure of DNA?
In the structure of DNA, a phosphate base is connected to a sugar molecule through a covalent bond. This bond forms the backbone of the DNA molecule, with the phosphate-sugar backbone providing stability and structure to the double helix shape of DNA.
The bond that holds the DNA sugars together to form the backbone of DNA is?
Phosphate backbone
What part of the DNA backbone do nitrogen bases bond to?
Nitrogen bases in DNA bond to the deoxyribose sugar molecules that make up the DNA backbone. The bond between the sugar and the base is a covalent bond known as a glycosidic bond.
What type of bond holds the deoxyribose and phosphate together?
A phosphodiester bond holds the deoxyribose sugar and phosphate group together in a DNA molecule. This bond forms between the 3' carbon of one deoxyribose and the 5' carbon of the adjacent deoxyribose in the DNA backbone.
How can one recognize a peptide bond in a molecule?
A peptide bond can be recognized in a molecule by looking for a specific bond between the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amino group of another amino acid. This bond forms the backbone of proteins and can be identified by its characteristic double bond between carbon and nitrogen atoms.
Which bond formed between fatty acids and glycerol?
ESTER BOND
Why is Olestra indigestible?
Normal dietary fats, such as butter, are made from 3 fatty acids bonded to a glycerol 'backbone'. Because Olestra is made from sucrose, it can bond with six, seven, or eight fatty acids. The resulting shape is much larger and irregularly shaped to fit through intestinal walls.
