For this online interactive English vocabulary skills worksheet, students respond to 13 multiple choice questions that require them to fill in the blanks in sentences with the appropriate prepositions.

In this biology worksheet, students look for the words in the puzzle that are related to the theme of the word search. Spelling skills are worked on.

Learners review the characteristics of acids and bases. They examine the structure of an amino group and compare amines to ammonia. They work together to develop the concent of polymerization.

In this endocrine system worksheet, students compare and contrast the glands associated with this body system plus review the four major classes of hormones. This worksheet has 25 fill in the blank statements.

In this small intestine, pancreas, liver, and gall bladder worksheet, students fill in the blanks with information about these structures of digestion. Students research information about organ of the digestive system given.

In this video, explore the formation of peptide bonds. Learn how the condensation reaction combines amino acid with peptide bonds. [8:25]

Proteins are linear polymers formed by linking the a-carboxyl group of one amino acid to the a-amino group of another amino acid with a peptide bond. The formation of a dipeptide from two amino acids is accompanied by the loss of a water...

A video reviewing over the dehydration synthesis reaction that occurs as amino acids are put together in a chain and held together by peptide bonds. [8:26]

If the amine and carboxylic acid functional groups in amino acids join together to form amide bonds, a chain of amino acid units, called a peptide, is formed. A simple tetrapeptide structure is shown in the following diagram. By...

The formation of peptides is nothing more than the application of the amide synthesis reaction. By convention, the amide bond in the peptides should be made in the order that the amino acids are written.

[Free Registration/Login Required] Given prior knowledge of bonding and the molecular make up of aspartame, examine the model and determine which color represents which atom. Drag the labels at the bottom to the appropriate colored atom...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this module, students investigate amino acids, peptide bonds, and proteins. They also have the opportnity to discover the effect of an enzyme on a biochemical...

This hands-on activity is an assessment of the students understanding of peptide and disulfide bonds formed during protein synthesis, and the structure of an amino acid (R-group plus the common structure that all amino acids share)....

Meet the English physiologist known for his contributions and study of peptide hormone called secretin and the process of peristalsis.

Very good introduction to the role that these chemicals play in the nervous system.

A collection of video lectures from a chemical structure and reactivity course taught at the University of California, Berkeley. The course teaches conjunction, aromatic theory, carbonyl compounds, carbohydrates, amines, carboxylic acid....

Learn the basics of peptide bonds and how different amino acids combine to form different proteins. Also discussed is the difference in function and structure of proteins.

Understandable lessons about numerous aspects about the composition, function, and interactions of proteins. Each starts with an interactive quiz and links to a tutorial.

Easy-to-understand notes and large graphics on the endocrine system include the evolution of the endocrine system and feedback cycles. Hormones and the nervous system are also discussed.

An explanation of the importance of fats and proteins in the human diet. Examples of chemical structures of various fats and proteins are used.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Students will learn about the structures and function of proteins and how we get protein in our diet.

Students learn about the organs with a secondary endocrine function, the hormones they produce, and the effects on human physiology.

Discover how peptides fold into stable conformations.
