25
reaction also called displacement involbved both synthesis and decomposition. bonds are made and broken
exchange
26
this is required to complete the decomposition reaction necessary for the release of eneergy in the body
oxygen
27
produced as a waste prodcut and helps maintain acid base balance
carbon dioxide
28
the study of chemical composition and reactions of living matter
biochemistry
29
2 major classes of chemical in the body
organic and inorganic
30
contain carbon and are made by living things
organic compounds
31
all other chemicals in the body are
inorganic
32
organic compounds in the body
carbs protine lipids nucleic acid-dna, rna
33
inorganic compounds
water salt acids, and basis
34
waters properties inthe body
high heat capicity vaporization polar solvent reactivity cushing
35
high heat capicity means
absorbs and realeases lareg amounts of heat before chaning in temp itself-redistrubutes heat in body tissues-temp hemostatis
36
high heat vapor means
water evaporates goes from liquid to gas-sweat evaporates removing heat from body colling effect
37
polar solvent mean
the universal solvent all chemicals in body relay on water solvent properties-transport medium
38
reactivity mean
important in chemical reactions-example food broken down by water molecule
39
cushioning means
resilent cushining around body organs to protect
40
an ionic compound-when dissolved they dissociate unto their component ions-electrolyte
salt
41
salt commenly found in the body
NaCl- sodium chloride KCL-potassium chloride
42
the most plenetful salt in body makes teeth and bones hard
calcium phosphate
43
these are electrolytes that can ionize and dissociate in water and can conduct eletrical current
acids and bases
44
a substance that releases hydrogen ions has a sour taste
acids
45
acid found in body
acetic acid
46
proton acceptors and take up hydrogen ions bitter taste
bases
47
important base in the body
bicarbonate ion
48
a group of molecules that include sugars and starches-hydrated carbon
carbohydrate
49
they are catorigised by size and solubility
carbohydrates
50
there major function is to provide the body with a ready used source of cellular fuel
carbohydrates
51
the building block of other carbohydrate
monosaccharides
52
called simple sugars
monosaccharides
53
glucose
monosaccharides
54
fructose
monosaccharides
55
galactose
monosaccharides
56
deoxyribose
monosaccharides
57
ribose
monosaccharides
58
sucrose
disaccharide
59
maltose
disaccharide
60
lactose
disaccharide
61
starch
polysaccharides
62
glycogen
polysaccharides
63
cellulose
polysaccharides
64
what carbohydrate is large and insoluble
polysaccharides
65
we are unable to digest this found in plants but its important to provide the bulk fiber that can move feces
cellulose
66
found in animals-stored primary in skeletal muscles and liver cells
glycogen
67
skelatal muscles use this for themselves
glycogen
68
liver cells store this to maintain blood sugars
glycogen
69
insoluble in water but disolve in other ____ and organic solvent such as alchole and ether
lipids
70
contain carbon hydrogen and oxygen
lipids
71
include triglycerides phosopholipids steriods othere substance
lipids
72
include saturated, unsatuirated, monounsaturated, or polyunstaturated
triglycerides
73
commenly know as fats when solid and oil when liquid
triglycerides
74
main functions include energy stoirage unsulation protection
triglycerides
75
contains 2 fatty acid tails a glycerol a phosphate
phospholipid
76
fat soluble and contain little oxygen

steriods
78
ingested ub egss meat cheese and liver produces some
steriods
79
found in cell membranes and is raw material for synthesis of vit D steriod hormones and bile salts-without it no reproduction and lack of corticosteriod by adrenal gland fatal
