Question: 1
Define heat capacity and gives its advantage,
Answer: 1
1-31The specific heat capacity of water is the number of calories required to raise the temperature of 1 gm of water from 15-16 Degree and it is 1 Degree.This is because much of the heat energy is used to break hydrogen bonds.Water work as temperature stabilizer for organisms in the environment and hence protects living materials against sudden thermal changes.

Answer: 6
6-31Water is effective lubricant which provides protection against damage from friction e.g tears protect eye surface from the rubbing of eyelids.

Question: 10
Define Heat of vaporization,what is heat of vaporization of water?
Answer: 10
10-31Water absorb much as of heat as changes from liquid to gas.Heat of vaporization is expressed as calories absorbed per gram of vaporized water.
The specific heart of vaporization of water 574 k cal/kg.
Question: 11
Define Protective role of water.
Answer: 11
11-31Water is effective lubricant that provide a protection against damages resulting from fiction,For Example tears protect the surface of eye from rubbing of eyelids. Water also forms a fluid cushion around organs that helps to protect them from trauma.
Question: 12
Why lipids are considered as high energy molecules as compared to the carbohydrates.
Answer: 12
12-31Lipids are also used to store energy e.g triglyceride. Because of high proportion pf C--H bonds ad very low proportion of oxygen,lipid store double amount if energy as compared to the same amount of carbohydrates.
Question: 13
What is heat capacity of water?
Answer: 13
13-31Water has great ability of absorbing heat with minimum change in its own temperature. The specific heat capacity of water - The number of calories required to raise the temperature of 1 g of water from 15 to 16 Degree is 1.0.
Question: 14
Name four functions of proteins.
Answer: 14
14-311.Enzymes
2.Building Function
3.Transport
4.Hormones
Question: 15
Define monosaccharides with examples.
Answer: 15
15-31Monosaccharides are simplest,more sweet sugars,which can not be hydrolyzed into simpler sugars.example are Ribose,Glucose.
Question: 16
What are Waxes?
Answer: 16
16-31Chemically waxes are mixture of long chains of alkanes and alcohols,ketones and esters of long chain fatty acids.
Question: 17
How many chains of amino acids are present in hemoglobin,also mention number of amino acids in hemoglobin.
Answer: 17
17-31There are four chains in hemoglobin two alpha and two beta chains,amino acids are 574.
Question: 18
Give difference between saturated and unsaturated fatty acid.
Answer: 18
18-31Saturated fatty acids: Fatty acids which have no double covalent bond in them are called saturated fatty acids.eg acetic acid.
Question: 19
How amino acids differs from each other?
Answer: 19
19-31All the amino acids have an amino group and a carboxyl group attached to the same carbon atom called alpha carbon.
Question: 20
Compare alpha helix with beta pleated sheet in proteins.
Answer: 20
20-31The polypetide chain in a protein do not lie flat,they usually coil into a helix or in to beta sheet like form.
One of the basic common structure is the alpha helix,It involves a spiral formation of the basic polypetide chain.The alpha helix is very uniform geometric structure with 3.6 amino acids in each turn of the helix.The helical structure turns of spiral.Beta pleated sheet is formed by folding back of polypetide.
Question: 21
How fibrous proteins differs from globular proteins?
Answer: 21
21-31Fibrous Proteins:They consist of molecule having one or more polypeptide chains in the form of fibrill
They are insoluble in aqueous media.
Question: 22
What are Lipids?Give two function of waxes.
Answer: 22
22-31The lipids are the heterogeneous group of compounds related to fatty acids is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ether,alcohol,chloroform and benzene etc.
Waxes are wide spread as protective coating on fruits and leaves.
Waxes protect plants from water loss and abrasive damage.
Question: 23
What are terpenoids?
Answer: 23
23-31Terpenoids are very large and important group of compound which are made up of repeating units called isoprenopid units.This unit by condensation in different ways gives rise to compound such as rubber,carotenoids,steroids and terpens.
Question: 24
Differentiate between Nucleoside and Nucleotide.
Answer: 24
24-31Nucleoside : When nitrogen base and pentose sugar react it forms nucleoside.
Question: 25
What are lipids?Write its one importance
Answer: 25
25-31Lipids are heterogeneous group if compounds related to fatty acids.The are insoluble in water and the soluble in organic solvents like ether,alcohols ,chloroforms and benzene etc.Importance of lipids are constitute major source of energy & play an important role in the structure of membranes of the cell.
Question: 26
How a peptide bond is formed.
Answer: 26
26-31The linkage between hydrooxyl group of carboxylic group of one amino acid and the hydrogen of amino group of another amino acid release water and C-N link to form peptide bond.
Question: 27
What F,Sanger concluded about insulin?
Answer: 27
27-31Sanger;s principle conclusion was that the two polypetide claims of the proteins insulin has precise amino acid sequences and by extension that every protein has a unique sequence.
Question: 28
What are conjugated molecules?Give one example.
Answer: 28
