25
Polar molecule
Unequal sharing of electrons
26
Solute
Solute: substance dissolved in solvent
27
Surface tension
Water is pulled together creating the smallest surface area possible.
28
Specific heat
The amount of heat per unit of mass required to raise the temperature by one degree celsius.
29
Number of Elements and compounds in living things.
90 elements naturally occurring. Only 11 are common in living things. Most common are carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen.
30
Organic and inorganic are two main groups of what?
Chemical compounds
31
Organic compounds are -----------large or small, simple or complex, why?
Also tend to be LARGE molecules(made up of lots of atoms) COMPLEX: lots of carbon and hydrogen atoms bound covalently.
32
Inorganic compounds are --------simple or complex, big or small, carbon or no carbon
Generally do NOT contain carbon CO2 is an exception Also tend to be Small and simple
33
What's so special about CARBON?
4 outer (valence) electrons.
34
Bottom line about carbon
It has HUGE potential for making a WIDE VARIETY of different types of molecules.
35
Bottom line about making polymers.
Small subunits link together to make large polymers.
36
4 major groups of organic compounds
Carbohydrates Lipids Proteins Nucleus acids
37
Functions of Carbohydrates
Quick energy They function in short term energy storage in plants They function as intermediate term storage They function as structural components in cells
38
Monomers polymers polysaccharides are part of what structure?
General carb structure
39
Monosaccharides
Monomers of carbs are monosaccharides
40
Why are monosaccharides important
Energy in them can be made quickly available to living things
41
Disaccharides
Double sugars | Two monosaccharides joined
42
Why are disaccharides useful?
Not quite so easily broken down as monosaccharides
43
How are Polysaccharides made?
Made by joining many monosaccharides
44
Types of polysaccharides
Starch and Glycogen
45
Polysaccharides - cellulose, example
Wood
46
Polysaccharides - chitin
Structural carbohydrate Cell walls of fungi Exoskeleton of autotrophs
47
What are 4 types of Lipids
``` Waxed Oils Fats Steroids Hormones All are nonpolar(don't dissolve in water) ```
48
Functions of lipids are what?
``` Energy storage Insulation Keeps animals warm Shock absorption Make important compounds ```
49
Structure of lipids
Glycerol + 3 fatty acids
50
Nadph nad+ are essential in what cycle
Calvin cycle
51
Solvent of life
Water
52
Solvent
Something that dissolves something else
53
Cells come from what?
Pre-existing cells through cell division
54
Cells are the smallest unit that is capable or performing life functions because......
Cells have all of the characteristics of living things
55
What type of cell is a complex organism in most living things?
Eukaryotic cell
56
Which type of cell can be unicellular and multicellular?
Eukaryotic cell
57
All living things are made of what?
Cells
58
What are the smallest working units of life?
Cells
59
This cell has organelles that are surrounded by membranes.
Eukaryotic cell
60
Cell membranes are in what two cells?

61
Which type of bilayer allows certain materials to pass freely rather than other materials?
Phospholipid
62
Cytoplasm is found in what two cells
Eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells
63
Which organelle is a jelly like fluid inside the membrane and supports and protects the cells?
