Q:

What type of Lipid is Estrogen?

A) phospholipid B) steroid
C) wax D) triglyceride
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) steroid

Explanation:

Estrogen is a group of steroid hormone that control the development and maintenance of an individuals feminine characteristics. Natural estrogen exists in men as well as women and are found in higher amounts in women Especially in those of reproductive age.

 

Estrogens are hormones which are responsible to the body functions of the female body system such as menstruation, development of the female body such as pubic hair, breasts and development of the proportions of the body.

 

Lipids act as best energy storage molecules as the cleavage of fatty acids produces both energy and metabolic water which is a main component in almost all lipids.

Q:

What is the simplest form of matter?

A) Element B) Molecule
C) Atom D) Compound
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Element

Explanation:

The simplest form of matter that has a unique set of properties and is cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical means is called an Element.

 

An Atom is the simplest form of an element.

The simplest form of some elements is a Molecule. When an element consists of two identical atoms it is called a diatomic molecule.

A substance that contains two or more elements chemically combined in a fixed proportion is called a Compound.

Q:

Which of the following is an Organic Molecule?

A) Nitrogen gas B) Ammonia
C) Fructose D) Water
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Fructose

Explanation:

Fructose is an Organic molecule among the given options.

  

Organic Molecules :

An organic molecule is one which contains carbon, although not all compounds that contain carbon are organic molecules. Noticeable exceptions are carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), carbonates (e.g. calcium carbonate), carbides (e.g. calcium carbide) and cyanides (e.g. sodium cyanide). Pure carbon compounds such as diamond and graphite are also not organic compounds. Organic molecules can range in size from simple molecules to complex structures containing thousands of atoms.

 

Although carbon is present in all organic compounds, other elements such as hydrogen (H), oxygen(O), nitrogen (N), sulfur (S) and phosphorus (P) are also common in these molecules.

 

In simple, Molecules needed for life that have carbon are called Organic Molecules.

Q:

Is Osmosis Active or Passive?

Answer

Osmosis is the process in which water molecules move from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower potential down a water potential gradient across a partially permeable membrane. It doen't requires any additional energy to do this work. 


So, Osmosis is a Passive.


 


Active and passive transport processes are two ways molecules and other materials move in and out of cells and cross intracellular membranes.


1. Active transport is the movement of molecules or ions against a concentration gradient (from an area of lower to higher concentration), which does not ordinarily occur, so enzymes and energy are required.


2. Passive transport is the movement of molecules or ions from an area of higher to lower concentration. Passive transport occurs because of the entropy of the system, so additional energy isn't required for it to occur.



3. Active transport requires energy to proceed, while passive transport does not require the input of extra energy to occur.

Q:

What happens when two atoms form a chemical bond?

A) Two atoms fuse together to form a chemical bond B) The atoms share or transfer electrons
C) A chemical bond forms when two atoms transfer or share protons to achieve a stable nucleus D) Like charges in the atoms cause them to stick together
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) The atoms share or transfer electrons

Explanation:

All chemistry is based on sharing electrons. A chemical bond forms when two atoms transfer or share outer electrons to complete their outer shells.
