atom

Periodic table of elements
An element is a piece of matter made of only one kind of atom all are neutral
Atomic number
The number at the top of the box the number of protons in an atom-- identifies to which element an atom belongs- the number of electrons
Mass number
The sum of protons and neutrons in an atom (always a whole number)
isotopes
Atoms with the same atomic number but different mass numbers
Isotopes
Atoms with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons
Electron configuration
Electrons are held in the energy levels first energy level to second energy level 8
Valence electrons
Electrons in the outermost energy level --how the periodic table is arranged
Octet rule
Rule of eight, 8 valence electrons and is a stable configuration of electrons exception to valence electrons in the first energy level is stable-- helium
Ionic bonding
Electrons are transferred from one atom to another in order to satisfy the octet rule
Ions
Atom with a charge of positive or negative
Cation
Is a positively charged ion
Anion
A negatively charged ion
Compounds
Ionic bonding creates charged components that can be pulled apart by water or solvent

Two atoms of the same element bonded together
Structural formula
series of - for single, double, or triple covalent bonds
Elements commonly used by the body
Carbon nitrogen phosphorus oxygen hydrogen
Property of water
is an excellent solvent makes the solution of many substances
Property of water to brake compounds
Thanks I own it compounds into individual ions do the water's polarity
Acids
Anytime there is more hydrogen ions in the solution it is a
Bases
Anytime there are fewer hyrdrogen then hydroxide ions in solution is
Neutrals
Anytime hydrogen and hydroxide ions in solution are equal
Acid
Molecules that I hadn't hydrogen ions to make a solution acidic
Base
Molecule that adds Oh - to a solution or remove hydrogen from the solution and does makes a solution more basic or alkaline
PH scale
Scale 0 acid ,7.0 is neutral, and 14 is basic or alkaline
Alkalosis
PH above 7.45
Acidosis
PH below 7.35
Buffers
Regulate pH weak acids and bases
Acid
If the pH of the body rises and becomes too basic then buffers act as
Bases
If the pH of the body falls and becomes too acidic then buffers act as bases and these buffers remove hydrogen ions from the solution
Polymer
Long-chain molecule made up of repeating units
Monomer
Repeating unit of a polymer
Carbohydrate
Sugar starts glycogen cellulose
Monosaccharides
Simple ring structures example glucose
Isomers
Have same chemical formula but different structural formula examples glactose and fructose
Disaccharides
Two monosaccharides join together using dehydration synthesis reaction
Disaccharide example
Maltose equal to glucose sucrose equal one glucose and one fructose lactose equals 1 glucose and 1 galactose
polysaccharides
Many monosaccharides joined together using the hydration synthesis reactions example starch is a polymer of glucose used by plants to store energy
Glycogen
Polymer of glucose used by humans to store energy liver skeletal muscle
Cellulose
Polymer of glucose used by plants as a structual molecule cell wall adds fiber
Dehydration synthesis
reaction used to build macromolecules of the body or remove a molecule harder in order to join molecules together
Hydrolysis
Reaction used to break molecules apart atom molecule of water to break molecules apart
Lipids
Fats oils and waxes macromolecules insoluble in water much less oxygen than carbohydrates
Fatty acids
fatty acids contain a carboxyl group at one end and a hydrocarbon chain can be either saturated or unsaturated saturated fatty acid accentuated with hydrogen all single covalent bonds between carbon atoms each carbon can hold 2 hydrogen
Unsaturated fatty acids
Fewer H atoms one or more double covalent bonds between carbon atoms
Glycerides
Consist of a molecule of glycerol and fatty acids 3 fatty acids make triglyceride or fat
Steroids
All have the same for ring structures example cholesterol used to make other steroids used in cell membrane hormones adrenal glands gonads ovaries testes
Phospholipids
Phosphate head hydrophilic and water loving fatty acid tails hydrophobic water fearing repels water is a polar molecule
Micelle
Ball of phospholipids normally used in digestive system has a bilayer make up cell membranes
Bilayer
Make up cell membranes will be important in cell transport
Proteins
Fundamental two bodies function and structure made up of amino acids 20 different amino acids and are polymers
Amino acids
1 all have the same basic structure to all contain carboxyl group an amino group 3 join together using dehydration synthesis reaction always the carbon carboxyl group joins to the nitrogen amino acid group carbon to nitrogen bond is a peptide
Primary structure
Sequence of amino acids
Secondary structure
Small scale bending folding coiling of the polypeptide chain certain amino acids are all attracted to each other
Tertiary structure
Large-scale bending folding coiling of the polypeptide chain give a protein its unique 3d dimensional shape 3d shape is called conformation if a protein loses its conformation it loses its function
Quaternary structure
Different polypeptide chains combined into a single protein different chains are called subunits example hemoglobin protein located in red blood cells
Some proteins
Ascetic groups not amino acid molecule built into protein example hemoglobin contains molecules of scheme contains Fe or iron protein is important in everything the body does and builds
The nature of protein
Protein that loses its shape or conformation and no longer functions
Agents of protein denature
High temperature pH shifts ionic shift
Nucleic acids
DNA and RNA polymers of nucleotide phosphate group monosaccharides nitrogen base
RNA
Is a single strand of nucleotides uses the sugar fibrose different base then DNA
DNA
Is a double strand of nucleotide bases bond to each other rival nucleic acid deoxyribose nucleic acid

Diffusion
The movement of particles from areas of high concentration to areas of lower concentration high to low concentration gradient diffusion results from natural molecular motion
No net diffusion
Both sides are equal
4 factors that influence rate of diffusion
1--Temperature if temperature increases rate of diffusion increases if temperature decreases the rate of diffusion decreases temperature affects molecular motion --2--size of particles --3-concentration gradient and --4 -distance
