Matter

anything that has mass or takes us space

Neutron

no charge

elcetron

negative charge

proton

positive charge

Element

something that is made up of only one type of atom

Periodic Table

arranges all elements in a chart. Includes mass of the element, the # of protons it has, and its 1 or 2 letter symbol

Compound

made if two or more elements in exact proportions

Molecule

a group of atoms held together by the energy of chemical bonds

molecular compound

form when different atoms share their outermost electrons

Ions

electrically charged atoms, either positive or negative

Ionic compounds

ions of opposite charges that attract one another to form electrically neutral compounds

Mixture

A combination of substances in which individual substances retain their own properties. They can be solids, liquids, gases, or any combination of them.

Solution

When two or more substances are mixed evenly

Suspension

Formed when a liquid or gas has another substance evenly spread throughout it.

Organic compound

Always contain carbon and hydrogen and are usually associated with living things.

Carbohydrates

Organic molecules that supply energy or all the cell processes.

Lipid

An organic compound found in living things that does not mix with water. They release large amounts of energy.

Protein

An organic compound made up of smaller molecules called amino acids. They are building blocks of many structures in organisms.

Enzyme

A protein that regulates nearly all chemical reactions in a cell

Nucleic acids

Large organic molecules that store important coded information in cells

Lipid

Protein

An organic compound made up of smaller molecules called amino acids. They are building blocks of many structures in organisms.

Enzyme

A protein that regulates nearly all chemical reactions in a cell

Nucleic acids

Large organic molecules that store important coded information in cells

Deoxyribonucleic Acid

The genetic material found in cells (DNA)

Ribonucleic acid

Used to make enzymes and other proteins (RNA)

Endocytosis

The process of taking substances into a cell by surrounding it with the cell membrane

Exocytosis

The process in which the contents of a vesicles are released by a cell.

Homogeneous

Homo- the same


Geneo- beginnings


Us- the state of


The state of having the same beginnings


The same throughout


1. Solutions


2. Colloids


3. Elements


4. Compounds

Heterogeneous

Herero- different


Geneo- beginnings


Us- the state of


The state of having different beginnings


Different throughout


1. Suspensions

Metabolism

The total of all chemical reactions in an organism

Photosynthesis

The process in which producers use light energy and make sugars, which can be used as food.

Cellular respiration

When chemical reactions occur that break down food molecules into simpler substances and release their stores energy.

Fermentation

When cells do not have enough oxygen for cellular respiration they use this process to release some of the energy stored in glucose molecules.

Inorganic compound

Made from elements other than carbon. They contain fewer atoms.

Passive Transport

The movement of substances through the cell membrane without the input of energy

Diffusion

The random movement of molecules from an area where there is relatively more of them to an area where there is relatively fewer of them

Diffusion

The random movement of molecules from an area where there are relatively more of them to a place where there is relatively fewer of them

Equilibrium

When the relative number of molecules is equal in two area

Osmosis

The diffusion of water through a cell membrane

Facilitated diffusion

Some substances are so large that they can only enter a cell with the help of molecules in the cell membrane called transport proteins.

Active transport

When an input of energy is required to move materials through a cell membrane

Vesicle

Transport and storage structure in the cell's cytoplasm.

Compare and contrast simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion.

Compare: don't use energy, concentration gradient: high to low


Contrast: simple diffusion does not have channel proteins and facilitated diffusion does

Chlorophyll

Chemical that allows plant to use sunlight to create chemical energies-- glucose. Necessary for photosynthesis. Gives plants green color.

2 ways to get rid of waste

Exocytosis- fuses the waste with the membrane and then spits it out


Diffusion- gets rid of CO2

Photosynthetic creatures

Bacteria


Protists


Algae


Snails

3 types of mixtures

1. Suspension-


1a. Settle out over time


2a. Can be filtered


3a. Scatters light


2. Solution


1b. Does not settle out over time


2b. Can't be filtered


3b. Doesn't scatter light.


3. Colloids


1c. Don't settle out over time


2c. Can't be filtered


3c. Scatters light

Pure substance

Any form of matter that can't be broken down any further and retains its chemical properties.

All matter is either...

A pure substance or a mixture.

Pure substances are either...

Elements or compounds


(Compound- Na wants to be like Neon, so it needs to lose one electron and becomes positive. Na+. Cl is a Argon wannabe and wants to gain one electron. It becomes negative. Cl-. To become neutral again the electrons have to balance out. -1 (Cl-) +1 (Na+) = 0, neutral. They become the compound sodium chloride (NaCl) or salt.)

Compare and contrast Active Transport and Passive Transport.

Compare: move substances through the cell membrane


Contrast: Active Transport uses energy, but Passive Transport doesn't.

Where does cellular respiration take place?

Inside mitochondria

Where does fermentation take place?

Inside cytoplasm.

How many adenosine triphosphates do you get from fermentation? How many from respiration?

2 ATP from Fermentation and 38 ATP from Respiration

Products of photosynthesis

Glucose and ocygen
