A1.1 Flashcards
water is required for
effective interacion of growing/ copying molecules in life
formation of compartments which have internal chemistry (diffrent from enviroment)
cell membranes only function in a
watery enviro
metabolism
enzyme catalysed chemicsl reactions turning food to energy
metabolism can only occure in a
watery inviroment
o2 is more
electromagnetic than h so attracts the shared electron more
more shells
decrease pull on electrons since further away from protons and electrons will shiled them from nucleus
intermoleular forces called
H bond, holds molecules together,
H bond
drawn
resitss increase of
but is week so shown in dotted line
due to h bond wster resists increase on sa from gravity/ objects

Cohesion
Water is attracted to water,
Adhesion
Water is attracted to other substances
all things are just tryi ng to
survive e reproduce
bipolar
one positive and one negaive regions
polar molecule
one or more regions are partially charged
process which rely on water
metabolism, circulation
photosynthesis
osmosis
