1
Everything in life boils down to interactions among chemicals Digestion of food Formation of bone tissue Contractions of muscles Biochemistry devoted to the study of life
2
Matter – anything that occupies space and has mass In the body, most chemicals take the form of molecules Molecules are composed of smaller units called atoms
3
Hydrogen Carbon Oxygen Proton is positively charged Neutron – 0 charge Electron – negatively charged
4
Atomic Number equals the number of protons in the nucleus Atomic Mass equals the number of protons and neutrons
5
Negatively charged electrons surround the nucleus at a distance In a neutral charged atom electrons and protons are equal The number of electrons in the outer orbital determine how it behaves The farther the orbital is from the nucleus the more energy it has May contain up to e electrons in the outer shell
6
Sodium (Na+) Chlorine- = Sodium Chloride
7
Element – pure, made up of one atom Molecule – a group of atoms Compound – substance with more than one kind of atom You want lots of this
9
Hydrogen plus oxygen H2O : two atoms of hydrogen and one of oxygen
10
Cells vary in SIZE and STRUCTURE Depends on what they do
11
All Animal Cells have Nucleus Cytoplasm (cytosol) Substance of cell outside nucleus Cell Membrane Cell Membrane is selectively permeable and made of phospholipids and protein
12
Directs cell activities (the “brain” of the cell) Contains genetic information (DNA) in the form of chromatin Also contains a nucleolus – makes ribosomes Has tiny pores where RNA can exit the nucleus Largest organelle in the cell Each gene has a code to produce a protein Proteins may act as enzymes
13
The nucleus is to the cell what the _________is to a person. The cell membrane is to a cell what the ________ is to a person. Image: http://www.chemistrypictures.orghttp://www.chemistrypictures.org
14
Substance outside cell Contains Endoplasmic reticulum
15
Transport system; canals and channels that connect membrane to nucleus and to organelles within the cell Smooth ER (lipid synthesis) Rough ER (contains ribosomes for protein manufacture)
16
Flattened membranes; function to package and deliver proteins produced by the ribosomes Proteins are exported in vesicles Contain mitochondria
17
Chemical energy from food is converted to a useable form (ATP) process is called Cellular Respiration The “powerhouse” of the cell CRISTAE
19
Lysosomes - contain digestive enzymes to break down substances Centrosome – forms a spindle during cell division Vesicles – packaged substances, exported Microfilaments and Microtubules - cell skeleton (cytoskeleton), maintains shape and functions in movement Cilia & Flagella
22
Diffusion - molecules tend to spread out Facilitated Diffusion Diffusion Animation
23
SALT SUCKS o Hypertonic o Hypotonic o Isotonic
24
Osmosis Animation
28
Filtration Active Transport Exocytosis Endocytosis (phagocytosis & pinocytosis)
29
Mitosis = nuclear division Mitosis is followed by cytokinesis (cell division) The steps of mitosis ensure that each new cell has the exact same number of chromosomes as the original Interphase = growth phase, differentiation occurs
30
Interphase Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase IPMAT
31
1. chromosomes visible (chromatids) 2. centrioles migrate to the poles 3. nuclear membrane disappears 4. nucleolus disappears 5. spindle forms
32
1. chromosomes line up on the equator, spindle attaches
33
1. chromatids separate and move to opposite poles
34
1. chromosomes disappear chromatin 2. nuclear membrane reforms 3. nucleoli reappears 4. spindle disappears 5. centrioles duplicate
35
- division of the cytoplasm to form 2 new daughter cells - organelles are divided - daughter cells are genetically identical Cells return to interphase
38
H+ = acidic HCO3- = alkaline (base) = bicarbonate CO2 forms H2CO3 = carbonic acid High levels of CO2 makes for acidosis in the body
39
Carbohydrates means carbon and water
40
Lipids – Triglycerides - one glycerol and 3 fatty acids Phospholipids – only two fatty acids and a phosphorous group Forms membranes of cells
41
Have a steroid structure Stabilizes membranes and makes steroids
42
Proteins are large units composed of basic units called amino acids
43
LARGE Participate in chemical processes Hormones Enzymes Can fold and bend to get what we need
