allows us to see if blood vessels are working properly
DSA
looking at metabolic activities
PET Scan
breaking things down
catabolism
building proteins

example of chemical bonds
stored energy in glycogen or fat molecules
how do we take energy out?
by breaking bonds

combination of two or more atoms from a chemical reaction
molecule
substance that can be broken down into two or more others by chemical means
compound
bonding where a transfer of electrons occurs
Ionic
what are ions in our body called
electrolytes
which are more stable….ionic or covalent
covalent
what type of bonding holds DNA together
Hydrogen bonding
temporarily attractive force
Hydrogen bonding
between which molecules can hydrogen bonding occur
H and O or H and N
putting two glucose molecules together to form maltose would be what type of chemical reaction
synthesis
reaction that releases energy
exergonic
reactants have more energy than products
exergonic
is an exergonic reaction anabolic or catabolic
catabolic
does oxidation or reduction occur during an exergonic reaction
oxidation
products at a higher energy level
endergonic
are endergonic reactions anabolic or catabolic
anabolic
does oxidation or reduction occur during an endergonic reaction
reduction
collision energy needed for a chemical reaction to occur
activation energy
are small or large things more reactive?
small
most common inorganic compound
water
why do organic molecules not dissociate
because they have covalent bonds
water is said to have a ______which means it is very resistant to change in temperature
high heat capacity
adding water to break bonds=
hydrolysis
removing water
condensation
example of water acting as a cushion
synovial joints, heart having a sac around it
Are salt organic or inorganic
inorganic
anything that reduces the H+ concentration
bases
