7 Fx- structural, contractile, storage, defense, transport, signaling proteins, enzymes


Nucleic acids

Made of carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, and phosphors



Monomers- nucleotides


Polymers- nucleic acid



Fx- dna

Nucleotides

Made from sugar, a base and phosphate group form the backbone of nucleic acid

Dna

Encodes hereditary information


Double helix structures

RNA

Creating protein


Some virus use RNA to store hereditary information

Central dogma

Dna


RNA


Protein (transcription)


Translation

Mutation

Change in DNA sequence or in the number or structure of chromosomes

Lipids

Made of carbon, oxygen, hydrogen


Mostly hydrophobic


Eg, Fats, phospholipids, steroids


Saturated and unsaturated fatty acids


Cis ans trans unsaturated fatty acids


Fx- cell membrane

Saturated fatty acid

Maximum number of hydrogen atoms


No double bonds


Unsaturated fatty acids

One or more double bonds


Components of an atom

Protons


Electrons


Neutrons

Define Elements

Fundamental building blocks of matter

Define compound

2 or more separate element

Define orbital

Space around the nucleous of an atom where electrons are found. Allow atoms to bond with other atoms

Define valence shell

Outermost shell of an atom containing then valence electrons

Define valence electron

Number of atoms to complete a valence shell to its maximum occupancy

Describe the roll of valence electrons in forming chemical bonds between atoms

Corresponds to the number of covalent bonds an element can form. The closer an atom is to achieving a full shell, the more "electron hungry" it is.

Describe polar covalent bond

One atom is more electronegative. Electrons not shared equally.


Partially charged.

Dedcribe non polar covalent bond

Similar electronegstivity


Shares equally

Describe ionic bond

Attraction between ions of opposite charge. Sometimes strip electrons from partner. After the transfer, both atoms are charged.

Describe hydrogen bonds

Interaction between a partially charged hydrogen atom and electronegstuce atom. Hell's stabilize biologic molecules.

Describe van der waals forces

Attraction between uncharged molecules.


Long hydrocarbon chains.


Slightly charged due to constant motion of electrons.

Why is water molecules practically charged?

??

Draw water molecule

Describe hydrophilic

Water loving.


Charged ions and polar molecules tend to be hydrophilic.

Describe hydrophobic

Water fearing


Unchanged non polar molecules (oils)

4 features of water

1) cohesive behaviour


2) moderator temperature


3) expands when freezes


4) versatility as a solvent but not universal

How acids and bases directly or indirectaly affect the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution

A change of 1pH corresponds to a 10-fold change in hydrogen ions

Define properties of carbon

Almost all molecules made by cells contain carbon.


Has valence of 4 = form 4 covalent bonds.


Can form huge range of large and diverse molecule.

Define organic molecule

Compounds synthesized by cells and containing carbon.


1)carbohydrates


2)protein


3)fats


4)lipids

Define hydrocarbons

Organic molecules made of only carbon and hydrogen

Define nacromolecules

??

Define monomers & polymers

Describe covalent bond

2 types. Polar and non polar.


Shares pairs of valence electron.


Double bond = Very strong bond.



Heat vs temperature

Heat: a measure of the amount of kinetic energy due to molecular motion.



Temperature: measured the intensity of heat due to the average kinetic energy of molecule.
