Buffers- weak acids or bases that resist pH changes
Buffers- weak acids or bases that resist pH changes *aid in keeping pH regulated in cells

3
Carbon Compounds Organic chemistry- the study of compounds that contain bonds between carbon (C) atoms *C has four valence e- (e- in outermost energy level) *can form four covalent bonds *can have single, double or triple bonds *C bonds with H, O, N, P and S *C can form long chains and complex molecules
4
Carbon Compounds
5
Macromolecules -giant molecules -made of many smaller molecules -formed by polymerization- large molecules are formed by joining smaller ones together monomers- smaller units polymers- larger units formed
7
-Monomers are joined together by dehydration synthesis -Removes a water molecule to form a polymer
8
Hydrolysis- water is added to separate a polymer into its monomers.
9
Groups of organic compounds in living things:
carbohydrates lipids nucleic acids proteins
10
Carbohydrates *made up of C, H and O *in a 1:2:1 ratio ex- C6H12O6
*main source of energy ex- sugars and starches (long chain of sugars) *can be stored as complex sugars
11
monomers = monosaccharide- single sugar molecules
ex- glucose, galactose and fructose polymers = polysaccharides- larger molecule formed from many monosaccharides ex- glycogen (excess stored sugar) and cellulose (found in wood)
12
Lipids. made up of C and H and some O
Lipids *made up of C and H and some O *not soluble in water (do not dissolve) *store energy and form membranes monomers = glycerol and fatty acids polymer = fats, oils and waxes
13
page 46 fig 2-14: LIPIDS
14
Saturated vs Unsaturated Fatty Acids
saturated- all single bonds which leads to maximum # of H unsaturated- at least one double bond between two carbon atoms -not loaded with Hydrogen
15
Nucleic acids. macromolecules containing H, O, N,C and P
Nucleic acids *macromolecules containing H, O, N,C and P *store and transmit hereditary or genetic info monomers = nucleotides -consists of 5-C sugar, a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base polymer = nucleic acid (DNA/RNA)
18
Proteins. contain C, N, H and O
Proteins *contain C, N, H and O *have an amino group and a carboxyl group *most diverse macromolecule because of R-groups *regulates cell processes, control reaction rates, transport substances and fight disease monomers = amino acids polymer = protein
19
Amino Acids and Proteins
general structure alanine serine
20
Chemical Reactions and Enzymes chemical reaction- process that changes one set of chemicals into another -atoms are rearranged -some reactions are fast ex: something blowing up -some are slow ex: rust forming
21
ex: CO2 + H2O H2CO3 reactants- elements or compounds that enter a reaction (in ex. CO2 and H2O) products- elements or compounds formed during reaction (in ex. H2CO3)
22
-chemical reactions involve the breaking and making of bonds -the number of each element you begin with must be the same as you end with ex: CO2 + H2O H2CO3 reactants products C 1 1 O 3 3 H 2 2
23
-Energy is either released or absorbed when bonds are made or broken ex: we release energy when we metabolize our food Activation energy- energy needed to get a reaction started -If the activation energy cannot be reached there will not be a reaction
24
activation energy products reactants reactants activation energy products
25
Catalysts- substances that speed up the rate of a chemical reaction -lowers activation energy Enzymes- proteins that speed up reactions in cells *biological catalysts
26
reaction pathway without enzyme
activation energy without enzyme reactants activation energy with enzyme reaction pathway with enzyme products
27
substrates- reactants of enzyme-catalyzed reactions -substrates bind with enzymes -enzymes are specific- can only bond with one type of substrate -like a lock and key
28
Enzymes jobs include: regulating chemical pathways making materials that cells need releasing energy 4. transferring info
29
enzyme glucose ADP substrates products glucose-6-phosphate ATP active site products are released substrates bind to enzyme enzyme-substrate complex substrates are converted into products
