What are large molecules called? What are examples of IUPAC nomenclature for organic compounds? What is an adduct in organic chemistry? What is solvolysis in organic chemistry? What are chlorinated volatile organic compounds? What is racemization in organic chemistry?
What organic compounds are present in the cell that aren't one of the four main groups (lipids, nucleic acids, amino acids, and carbohydrates)? What are the basic components of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins? What kinds of molecules are biomolecules? Which of the followi...
It may consist of atoms of a single chemical element, as with oxygen (O2), or of different elements, as with water (H2O). As components of matter, molecules are common in organic substances (and therefore biochemistry) and are what allow for life-giving elements, like liquid water and bre...
Organic molecules must contain essential elements. Any compound that cannot be broken down into smaller chemicals by regular chemical changes is a chemical component or element. The building blocks whereby all matter is made are called elements. A material is considered an element if it can't be...
In the first step of this cycle, called carbon fixation, an enzyme called RuBP carboxylase/oxygenase, also known as rubiso, helps incorporate CO2 into an organic molecule called 3-phosphoglyceric acid (3-PGA). In the process, it breaks off a phosphate group on six ATP molecules to convert ...
All living things are composed of intricate systems of inorganic and organic compounds. For example, there are many kinds of organic compounds that are found in nature, such as hydrocarbons. Hydrocarbons are the molecules that are formed when carbon and hydrogen combine. They are not soluble in ...
The article focuses on research into the three-dimensional distribution of organic molecules in the comae of the comets Lemmon and ISON using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array for ...
Nucleotides are organic molecules that serve as the basic structural (monomer) units for DNA and RNA, which, as we know, are the building blocks responsible for all life on Earth. Each nucleotide containsa nitrogenous base, a five-carbon sugar, and at least one phosphate group. When bonded ...
(化合物) called 2-nonenal. The compound is a byproduct of other chemical breakdowns and sends out a “greasy” or “grassy” odor as the molecules (分子) exit the skin and are released into the air. Researchers disc...
Which organic molecules are nucleic acids? What kind of macromolecule is made from amino acids? What molecule connects the sugars in a strand of DNA? What chemical element is present in proteins and nucleic acids? What type of macromolecule is an enzyme?
