Multiple Choice

Large bodies of water, such as lakes and oceans, do not quickly fluctuate in temperature. What is the reason for this phenomenon?

Water is an acid.

Water is a versatile solvent.

Water has a high heat capacity.

Water acts as a buffer.

Multiple Choice

Why does ice stay at the top of oceans instead of sinking to the bottom?

Ice is colder than liquid water.

Ice is less dense than liquid water.

Ice is more dense than liquid water.

Ice is warmer than liquid water.

Multiple Choice

Water is often called the "universal solvent" because many substances can be dissolved in water. What property of water allows it to be such a versatile solvent?

purity

polarity and cohesion

high heat capacity

expansion upon freezing

Multiple Choice

Small insects can walk across the surface of calm water. Their feet push the surface of the water down slightly, somewhat like a person walking across a trampoline, but they do not break the surface. What is the best explanation for why this happens?

The insects are light enough so that they do not break the hydrogen bonds holding the water molecules together

The insects actually use their wings to hover slightly above the water's surface and they only skim it with their feet

The insects' feet are non-polar, so they are repelled by the polar water molecules and are pushed away from the water's surface

The insects are small enough to see the individual water molecules, so they are able to step carefully from one molecule to the next

Multiple Choice

Water makes up approximately 60% of the human body and plays a vital role in regulating body temperature. Which property of water makes it good at regulating temperature?

Water is a good solvent.

Water exhibits strong cohesion.

. Water has an unusual crystalline structure.

Water has a high capacity for heat.

Multiple Choice

A florist places a bouquet of white carnations in water containing blue dye. After a time, the flowers turn blue. What process helped the carnations to change color?

Specific heat

Surface tension

Cohesion and adhesion of water molecules

Formation of covalent bonds between hydrogen and oxygen molecules

Multiple Choice

Water has a much higher specific heat than most other covalent compounds. What do you predict might happen if water had a low specific heat instead?

Flooding would occur and animals would be forced to migrate

Harmful organisms living in water would reproduce at a rapid rate

Organisms that are sensitive to changes in temperature would die

Plants would not have enough water to effectively carry out photosynthesis

Multiple Choice

Which of the following characteristics of water is not a result of hydrogen bonding?

adhesive strength

capillarity

cohesive strength

All of the above are a result of hydrogen bonding.

Multiple Choice

Many fish and aquatic plants can survive a cold winter because the layer of ice that forms at the top of the lake insulates the water below and prevents the lake from freezing solid. What unique property of water contributes to this effect?

Water absorbs heat when it evaporates and forms a gas

Water expands and becomes less dense when it freezes.

Water molecules completely separate into ions in solutions.

Water forms hydrogen bonds with ions and other polar substances.

Multiple Choice

The diagram shows the general structure of an amino acid. Which type of molecule is formed from amino acids?

lipids

proteins

carbohydrates

nucleic acids

Multiple Choice

lipid

protein

carbohydrate

nucleic acid

Multiple Choice

Fats, oils and cholesterol are all types of what?

cell membranes

hormones
hormones

lipids

fatty acids

Multiple Choice

RNA and DNA are which type of macromolecules?

carbohydrate

lipid

nucleic acid

protein

Multiple Choice

Many plants have waxy coatings on some surfaces. This coating reduces water loss because it is not water-permeable. This waxy coating is which of the following types of organic molecule?

protein

carbohydrate

nucleic acid

lipid

Multiple Choice

A sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogen base form the building blocks of which organic compound?

carbohydrates

lipids

nucleic acids

proteins

Multiple Choice

The human body maintains a temperature of around 98.6 degrees at all times. Enzymes are involved in almost every chemical reaction in the body. Which of the following describes the connection between these two statements?

Enzymes function best at a specific temperature.

The body needs to be warm to prevent hypothermia.

The body is kept relatively warm to prevent too much enzyme action.

There is no connection between the two statements.

Multiple Choice

Like complex carbohydrates, proteins are macromolecules that serve many functions and can be chemically broken down and restructured. Both proteins and complex carbohydrates are which of the following?

polymers of smaller subunits

sequence of sugars

lipids of large molecules

nucleotides of DNA

Multiple Choice

In living organisms, lipids function mainly as:

Sources of stored energy and transmitters of genetic information

Sources of stored energy and components of cellular membranes

Transmitters of genetic information and catalysts of chemical reactions

Catalysts of chemical reactions and components of cellular membranes

Multiple Choice

What is the function of macromolecule subunit below?

energy

catalyst

stores genetic information

composes the majority of the cell membrane

Multiple Choice

Enzymes function best at a specific temperature.

The body needs to be warm to prevent hypothermia.

The body is kept relatively warm to prevent too much enzyme action.

There is no connection between the two statements.

Multiple Choice

The enzyme lactase will break down the sugar lactose into which of the following components?

monosaccharides

nucleic acids

amino acids

phospholipids

Multiple Choice

As food travels through the digestive system, it is exposed to a variety of pH levels. The stomach has a pH of 2 due to the presence of hydrochloride acid (HCl), and the small intestine has a pH ranging from 7 to 9. HCl converts pepsinogen into pepsin, an enzyme that digests proteins in the stomach. Which of the following most likely happens to pepsin as it enters the small intestine?

It becomes inactive.

It begins to replicate.

It's shape changes to engulf large proteins.

It's activity increases to digest more proteins.

Multiple Choice

In the diagram, what is letter A?

product

substrate

enzyme-substrate complex

active site

Multiple Choice

Enzymes function best at a specific temperature.

The body needs to be warm to prevent hypothermia.

The body is kept relatively warm to prevent too much enzyme action.

There is no connection between the two statements.

Multiple Choice

What is the purpose of an enzyme?

give permission for the reaction

raise activation energy

speed up reactions

control how many reactions occur

Multiple Choice

Where do substrates bind on an enzyme?

voltage-gated channels
