Compare and Contrast:
How are the molecules of Sugar and Fat Similar?
How are the molecules of Sugar and Fat Different?
Compare molecules C6H12O6 (Sugar/Glucose) and C16H32O2 (Fat/Lipids)
The answer is not found directly in the video. The video only provides supporting information.
C= one carbon atom. C6 = 6 carbon atoms in the molecule
H = one hydrogen atom. H12 = 12 hydrogen atoms in the molecule
O = one oxygen atom. O6 = 6 oxygen atoms in the molecule
The fat and sugar molecules both have _______ _______ and _______ atoms in each molecule.
Fat molecules have _______ oxygen atoms than sugar but _______ carbon and hydrogen atoms. (blanks 4 and 5 should say either "more" or "less")
How did the highlander mice obtain more oxygen than the lowlander mice?
This information is found directly in the video
Highlander mice have hemoglobin that is better able to bind oxygen in the lungs.
Highlander mice have larger lung capacities to process more oxygen in an environment where there is less oxygen.
Highlander mice are in no way different from lowlander mice and they use fat instead of sugar because there is a lack of oxygen in the higher atmosphere.
