1
Trace elements? 25 elements essential for life
2
Symptom of an iodine deficiency Iron deficiency?
3
Locations and charges of protons? Neutrons? Electrons?
4
Atomic number Atomic mass
5
Atomic Mass vs. Atomic Number?????
6
What is an isotope?
7
Cancerous throat tissue Isotopes use to diagnose disease Administer a molecule similar to glucose that has a radioactive tag PET scan picks up the released radiation and detects areas of high metabolism
8
Urea Breath Test Tests for stomach bacteria: Helicobacter pylori Give urea with some of the carbon being 14 C. If there is Helicobacter pylori in the stomach, then this bacteria will break down the urea and produce C0 2. The CO 2 will be exhaled by the patient and collected in a balloon. If some of the carbon in the exhaled CO 2 contains is 14 C then there must be some bacteria present in the stomach. The more 14 C exhaled, the more Helicobacter pylori present. The breath test can be repeated to determine the success of the treatment.
9
Radioactive iodine Used treat hyperthyroidism and thyroid cancer, Small doses used to test thyroid function.
10
shows the concentration of radioactive tracer bound to monoamine oxidase B (MAO B). Red shows the highest concentration. MAO B is important because it breaks down the chemicals that allow nerve cells to communicate and regulate blood pressure.
11
What causes an atom to react with other atom? Or… would cause it to be nonreactive (stable)?
13
Ionic Bond
22
(–) O HH (+)
23
Hydrogen bond
24
Strong attraction for electrons
25
A few water molecules can break apart into ions –hydrogen ions (H + ) –hydroxide ions (OH – ) Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. pH
26
Acids vs. bases Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. pH
27
A pH scale (pH = potential of hydrogen) is used to describe whether a solution is acidic or basic –pH ranges from 0 (most acidic) to 14 (most basic) –A solution that is neither acidic or basic is neutral (pH = 7) Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc.
28
Acidic solution pH scale Battery acid 0 1 2 3 4 5 Lemon juice, gastric juice Grapefruit juice, soft drink, vinegar, beer Tomato juice Rain water Human urine Saliva Pure water 6 7 Human blood, tears Seawater 8 9 10 11 12 13 Milk of magnesia Household ammonia Household bleach Oven cleaner Neutral solution Basic solution NEUTRAL [H + ]=OH – ] Increasingly ACIDIC (Higher concentration of H + ) 14 Increasingly BASIC (Lower concentration of H + ) Logarithmic scale Change in one unit on pH scale = 10 x change in hydrogen ion concentration
29
Solution A has a pH = 4 Solution B has a pH = 2 How much more acidic is Solution B? Solution C has a pH = 9 Solution D has a pH = 12 How much more H+ ions does solution C have compared to solution D?
30
Why is pH important? Different areas of the body have different pH values –Ex: stomach blood If the pH varies from this value, proteins lose their shape and don’t work
31
Molecules that can accept or release H+ resist change in pH Are usually weak acid/base pairs
34
Cohesion of water water sticking to itself Does this because of hydrogen bonding Results in water having surface tension –“film” on top of water
35
Temperature moderation Water resists changes in temperature
36
Feb: 15.7° F July: 70.4 ° F Feb: 44.3° F July: 65.3 ° F Water can absorb and release a lot of thermal energy with a small change in temperature -ex: moderate temperatures at coasts
37
Absorbs a lot of energy when heating up Releases energy when cooling down ex: evaporative cooling
38
Adhesion water sticking to something else (polar or charged) Meniscus
40
Transpiration Uses cohesion and adhesion to move water from the roots to top of a tree
41
Adhesion of water To cells of xylem Cohesion of water to itself
42
Density Water is densest at 4° C Ice is less dense than liquid water Provides insulation and allows wildlife to survive under a layer of ice Ice floats
43
Water is an almost universal solvent Ionic compounds (like salt) will dissolve in water Polar molecules will dissolve in water (sugar) In a solution the SOLVENT is the substance in a greater amount The SOLUTE is the substance present in a lesser amount
45
Glucose
47
Molecules that can accept or release H+ resist change in pH Are usually weak acid/base pairs
