3 Section 1: Matter is composed of tiny particles called atoms.
Section 2: Chemical reactions allow living things to grow, develop, reproduce, and adapt. Section 3: The properties of water make it well suited to help maintain homeostasis in an organism. Section 4: Organisms are made up of carbon-based molecules.

4 Essential Questions What are atoms?
How are the particles that make up atoms diagrammed? What are the similarities between covalent and ionic bonds? How are van der Waals forces described? What are the parts of a chemical reaction? How can energy changes be related to chemical reactions? What is the importance of enzymes in living organisms? Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education Chemistry in Biology

5 Essential Questions continued
How does the structure of water make it a good solvent? What are the similarities and differences between solutions and suspensions? What are the differences between acids and bases? What is the role of carbon in living organisms? What are the four major families of biological macromolecules? What are the functions of each group of biological macromolecules?
