Building Block Units Atoms Elements Pure substance that makes up everything Names of elements are abbreviated using symbols 6 most common elements in living things are: Sulfur (S), Phosphorus (P), Oxygen (O), Nitrogen (N), Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H) Atoms smallest particle of an element that has the characteristics of that element, basic building blocks of all matter Contains a nucleus that holds positively(+) charged protons and neutral neutrons Around the nucleus are the energy levels where negatively (-) charged electrons spin around the nucleus first energy level holds up to 2 electrons second energy level holds up to 8 electrons third energy level holds up to 8 electrons

Building Block Units Continued Atoms of different elements have different numbers of protons (Exception) Isotopes: atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons Some isotopes are radioactive and are useful in experiments Compound Substance made up of 2 or more elements chemically combined (covalently bonded) Table salt is made up of chlorine and sodium   States of Matter A gas is a state of matter in which atoms or molecules have enough energy to move freely. A liquid is a state of matter in which atoms or molecules are constantly in contact but have enough energy to keep changing positions relative to one another. A solid is a state of matter in which atoms or molecules do not have enough energy to move.

Bonding Elements Ionic Bond Covalent Bond formed when one atom donates electrons to another atom formed when two atoms share electrons Molecule is a compound held together by covalent bonds

Chemical Reactions A chemical reaction is a process that changes some chemical substances into other chemical substances. The substances that start a chemical reaction are called reactants. The substances that form as a result of a chemical reaction are called products. During the reaction, the reactants are used up to create the products. Metabolism: all the chemical reactions that occur in an organism Water helps facilitate (aid) chemical reactions in biotic organisms due to its chemical structure

Water Water (H2O) is a molecule that contains covalent bonds Water is polar, which means there is a positive end and a negative end – can be reactive depending on pH Water will gravitate/interact with other molecules When water gives off hydrogen (H+) it will interact with polar molecules and break them apart into smaller molecules or compounds When water (H2O) is –OH, it will attract hydrogen (H+) from molecules and help create larger molecules Properties Water heats up and cools down very slowly Helps cells maintain homeostasis Water expands when it freezes So ice is less dense than liquid water and ice floats

Water Continued Water transports molecules and elements in a cellular environment as a result of diffusion Diffusion: the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration Brownian motion: random motion of atoms and molecules Brownian motion causes diffusion Example: Smell of cookies moves from the kitchen (high concentration) to the rest of the house (low concentration) Biological example: materials diffuse into and out of cells as particles will continue to move until they have reached equilibrium (are evenly spread out)

Macromolecules Organic compounds Compounds that contain carbon atoms bonded to each other Found in all living things Carbon is important because it can bond to other atoms in so many ways Four different types of organic compounds (macromolecules – polymers) Carbohydrates Lipids Proteins Nucleic Acids

Carbohydrates made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen Sugars used by organisms for short term energy monosaccaride: 1 sugar molecule, such as glucose (monomer) disaccharides: 2 sugar molecules linked together, such as sucrose (table sugar) polysaccharides: many sugar molecules linked together, such as starch

Lipids made up of carbon and hydrogen mostly fats, oils, waxes, steroids used by organisms for long term energy, insulation, and protective coatings fatty acid: a simple lipid molecule (monomer) fatty acids are linked together to make bigger lipid molecules  

Proteins Made up of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and sometimes sulfur. 20 different amino acids (monomer) are used to build proteins used for construction of organisms (hair, nails, muscles), digest food and for speeding up chemical reactions in an organism (enzymes)

Nucleic Acid Made up of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus Nucleotides (monomer) are used to build nucleic acids Store genetic information (DNA, RNA)
