25
hydrogen bonds
weak bonds, electronegative to electropositive
26
chemical reactions
formation breaking or rearrangement of chemical bonds
27
anabolic
chemical reaction thats constructive
28
catabolic
destructive. phase in metabolism in form of ATP. complex molecules into simpler ones.
29
net loss or gain
in every chemical reaction
30
exergonic reactions
energy is released
31
endergonic
energy absorbed
32
equilibrium
stability.
33
chemical reactions
when particles collide and valence shell electrons interact
34
catalysts, higher temp or reactant concentration
increase chemical reaction rates
35
inorganic compounds
do not contain carbon (water, salts, inorganic acids/bases)
36
water
participates in chemical reactions, cushions body organs
37
salts
ionic compounds, electrolytes, calcium, phosphorous
38
acids/bases
acids are proton donors. In water they ionize and release hydrogen ions and anions
39
bases
proton acceptors (hydroxide, bicarbonate ion, ammonia)
40
pH
hydrogen ion conc. of a solution. 7 and lower is acidic
41
organic compounds
contain carbon (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acid) -> all are synthesized by dehydration synth. and digested by hydrolysis C, H, O in all these
42
carbohydrates
building blocks of monosaccharides. (glucose, fructose, galactose, ribose, deoxyribose) disaccharide's (sucrose, maltose, lactose) Polysaccharides (starch, glycogen). forms ATP. converted fat for storage.
43
lipids
dissolved in fats, triglycerides, unsatturated fatty chains, saturated fatty acids, phospholipids, steroids
44
triglycerides
composed of fatty acids chains and glycerol. provide insulation
45
unsaturated fats
fatty acid chains produce oils
46
saturated fatty acids
produce solid fats
47
phospholipids
phosphorous containing triglycerides have non-polar and polar portions. found in all plasma membranes.
48
proteins
amino acids, one or more polypeptides, chains, three dimensional structure
49
amino acids
joined by peptide bonds form a polypeptide.
50
fibrous proteins
keratin, collagen, a-helix, b-pleated sheet
51
globular proteins
enzymes, hormones, antibodies, hemoglobin (all catalysis and molecule transport)
52
enzymes
catalysts. increase chem. reactions, decrease activation energy needed.
53
proteins denatured b/c
extreme temp. or pH
54
nucleic acids
DNA, RNA, nucleotide (consists of nitrogenous base like adenine, cytosine, thymine), a sugar (ribose or deoxyribose) and a phosphate group.
55
DNA
contains deoxyribose, protein structure, replicates itself exactly before cell division.
56
RNA
ribose, DNA's instructions for protein synth.
57
Adhesion
water molecules are attracted to other properties.
58
anion
ion thats negatively charged
59
cation
positively charged
60
Cohesion
water molecules attracted to other water molecules
61
colloids
dispersed particles dont settle
62
dehydration synthesis
monomers join to make polymers. water is removed
63
hydrolysis
water is added. polymers break down to monomers
64
dipole
opposing electric charges
65
electronegative
not a full outer shell
66
solute, solvent, solution
solute dissolved in solvent to make solution
