Cell membrane and the polymers involved
phospholipids (lipids) are important for cell membrane structure and function. They allow compartmentalization in cells, regulate exchanges, and allow formation of gradients. |
Be able to draw:
Glucose, Ribose, Amino Acid, Glycerol, and a fatty acid |
Calculations
Caclulate the number of electrons stored on any organic molecule In a lewis dot structure, the atom with the highest electronegativity gets all the electrons stored on it
