Adenine

Pairs with thymine by two hydrogen bonds

1 of 8

ATP

Mitochondria synthesises ATP during aerobic respiration (M supply ATP) ; required for active transport ; made up of phosphate and ribose

2 of 8

Adhesion

Adhesion (sites) are areas where adjacent cells are held together (Membrane proteins can act as adhesion sites)

3 of 8

Amino acid

Proteins are made of chains of amino acids ; Protein shape is determined by the sequence of amino acids ; differ through R-groups; Linked together by peptide bonds; Condensation reactions take place between amino groups of amino acids;

4 of 8

Amylopectin

In amylopectin, a-glucose monomers are held together by a-1,4-glycosidic bonds and a-1,6-glycosidic bonds ; forms 80% of starch ; molecules are very compact; branched therefore has loads of termincal ends for rapid hydrolysis; branched molecule

5 of 8

Amylose

In amylose, a-glucose monomers are held together by a-1,4-glycosidic bonds ; chains coil to form a spiral which are held togther by H bonds ; Has long unbranched chains; coiled configuration due to precense of bulky side groups;molecules are compact

6 of 8

Antibody

Y shaped protein produced mainly by plasma cells that is used by the immune system to neutralize pathogens such as pathogenic bacteria and viruses.

7 of 8

Anti parallel strand

DNA has two of these; In DNA, the two anti parallel strands are held together by H bonds between adjacent bases
