Carbohydrates are generally hydrophilic, meaning they are soluble in water.

Cellulose is composed of glucose units linked by β-1,4 glycosidic bonds and is not soluble in water.

Chemisorption is characterized by its specificity to adsorbate due to the formation of chemical bonds.

Cis-trans isomers have the same connectivity but differ in the spatial arrangement of groups around a double bond.

Complete flowers have all four whorls: sepals, petals, stamens, and carpels.

Composite numbers are defined as natural numbers greater than 1 that are not prime, meaning they have more than two distinct positive divisors.

Covalent compounds generally have low melting points and do not conduct electricity in solution.

Cross-linked polymers have a three-dimensional network structure, which gives them a high melting point and strength.

Cycloalkanes have a ring structure and can be saturated or unsaturated.

Dicots are characterized by having net-like leaf venation and two cotyledons.

Dicotyledons are characterized by having two cotyledons in their seeds.

Digital communication systems allow for easier encryption and security measures compared to analog systems.

Digital signals are discrete in nature, representing data in binary form, which makes them less susceptible to noise compared to analog signals.

Elastic materials return to their original shape after the removal of the applied force.

Elastomers are known for their elastic properties, allowing them to stretch and return to their original shape.

Enzymes are highly specific to their substrates, allowing them to catalyze specific biochemical reactions.

Essential amino acids cannot be synthesized by the body and must be obtained through the diet.

Essential oils are volatile compounds that are often used for their aromatic properties and therapeutic benefits.

Ethers generally have lower boiling points than alcohols due to the absence of hydrogen bonding.

Eukaryotic cells are characterized by the presence of membrane-bound organelles, including a nucleus.

Eukaryotic genes often contain introns, which are non-coding sequences that are removed during RNA processing.

Exponential functions grow or decay at a constant percentage rate, which is a defining characteristic.

Fibrous proteins are typically insoluble in water and serve structural roles in cells and tissues.

Gamma radiation is a form of electromagnetic radiation with high penetrating power and no mass or charge.

Gases are highly compressible, meaning their volume can change significantly under pressure.

GMOs are organisms whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques, often incorporating genes from other species.

Geometric isomers have the same connectivity of atoms but differ in their spatial arrangement.

Gibberellins promote flowering and are also involved in seed germination and stem elongation.

Harmonic progression can include fractions, as it is defined through the reciprocals of an arithmetic progression.

Harmonic progressions can contain negative numbers, but the terms themselves must be positive to maintain the definition of harmonic sequences.
