[h]The Four Biomolecule Families

[i]The quiz that follows is like the game “hangman.” Type in the letters to complete the questions below.

If you don’t get the answer right the first time, you get another try (so don’t stress about getting questions wrong: everybody learns at their own pace).

Note that answers might repeat

[q] In a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, both the bread and the jelly would be classified as [hangman].

[q]Both monosaccharides like glucose and disaccharides like sucrose are [hangman].

[c]c3VnYXJz[Qq]

[q]The fondness for sugar shared by many animals (including humans) evolved because sugars are a quick source of [hangman].

[c]ZW5lcmd5[Qq]

[q]The polysaccharide found in bread, pasta, and rice is called [hangman].

[c]c3RhcmNo[Qq]

[q]The polysaccharide that makes up plant fiber is called [hangman].

[c]Y2VsbHVsb3Nl[Qq]

[q]Cellulose makes up the cell [hangman] of plants.

[c]d2FsbA==[Qq]

[q]Wood and cotton are both made of a polysaccharide called [hangman]

[c]Y2VsbHVsb3Nl[Qq]

[q]One thing that the lipids have in common is that they are, for the most part, [hangman], which is why they generally won’t dissolve in [hangman].

[c]bm9ucG9sYXI=[Qq]
