1. BIOCHEMISTRY The study of Elements and compounds In organisms

2. pH = percent Hydrogen pH is a scale that measure the amount of H + ions or OH - ions to us…this just means ACIDIC or BASIC (ALKALINE) 0-6.9 = acidic 7 = neutral 7.1-14 = basic

3. Element the most basic form of any pure material. Example: Hydrogen (H) Example: Potassium (K) Compound A combination of elements. Many elements on earth remain bonded to other elements as compounds. Examples: H 2 O, CO 2, C 6 H 12 O 6

4. Monomer A single subunit. Many monomers can be joined to make larger molecules. Polymer A long chain of many (3 or more) monomers.

5. Macronutrients elements required in large amounts by living things. Hydrogen Carbon Oxygen Nitrogen

6. Micronutrients: Elements needed in SMALL quantities (vitamins/minerals) ZincSodiumChlorineIronPhosphorousCalciumMagnesiumIodinePotassiumSulfurEtc…

7. Organic Compound A Combination of elements found in living things. ALWAYSOrganic compounds ALWAYS contain C and H (and usually O)

20. LIPIDS Elements Carbon Hydrogen Oxygen FYI: (3+ : 1 ratio) Subunit 1 glycerol 3 fatty acids and hydrophobic Fatty acids are hydrophobic: they repel water. This is the HO HO HO molecule!

21. LIPIDS examples Fats, oils, waxes Myelin sheath Cell membrane Steroid hormones

22. LIPIDS function Stored Energy Insulation Cushions Organs Regulation of reproductive system

23. Human adipose cells swollen with fat!!!!! Humans can grow more fat cells, but can never get rid of them!! As we gain and lose weight, they just swell and shrink. …Makes you think twice about those French fries!!!

29. Know These!

30. Monosaccharide Disaccharide Polysaccharide

31. What is the name of a bond formed between two amino acids? Another name for a protein is a ___________. polypeptide How can you recognize this as an amino acid?

32. Remember: HO HO HO, were GLad Santa is coming!

33. CHEMICAL REACTIONS

34. DEHYDRATION SYNTHESIS Combining simple molecules into complex molecules by the removal of a molecule. Removing water is called _______________. WATER An H and an OH are taken from the molecules that are being joined. The H and OH combine to form ________. water The other result is two monomers joined together. This forms a _____________. polymer DEHYDRATION

36. Explain: a) process b) molecule formed c) molecule removed

37. Explain: a)Process b)Molecules joined c)Name of bond formed d)Molecule removed

38. HYDROLYSIS controlled of large complex molecules into small soluble molecules by the addition of. The life process for this reaction is. Enzymebreakdown H2OH2O digestion Adding water is called ________ and –lysis means to _____, thus HYDROLYSIS! hydrate split

40. CATALYST A ______________ is a chemical that ____________ chemical reactions WITHOUT being __________ by that reaction. CATALYST SPEEDS UP CHANGED

41. ENZYMES - Enzymes ARE protein catalysts! - So…Enzymes SPEED UP chemical reactions in our bodies WITHOUT being changed in that reaction! - Enzymes are reused many times before the body gets rid of them. - Enzymes can join together or break apart molecules. What are those two processes called?

42. There are OODLES of Enzymes!! Each ENZYME is specific to its SUBSTRATE. Most enzyme names end in –ase!

43. Enzyme Vocab Enzyme: a protein catalyst that speeds up chemical reactions without being changed by that reaction. Substrate: the molecule(s) the enzyme is working on. Product: the molecule(s) created by the enzyme. NOTE* enzymes can JOIN molecules or SPLIT them!!

44. Enzyme Activity Called the enzyme- substrate complex

45. Enzyme Action… again

46. Denature: Extreme conditions can cause enzymes to denature, or change shape. Based on what you know about enzyme function, how does this change of shape impact how enzymes work? NormalDenatured

47. Factors affecting Enzymes: 1.TEMPERATURE & 2.pH too HIGH or too LOW pH denature enzymes too HIGH of a temperature will denature enzymes NOT too LOW of a temperature will ONLY SLOW DOWN their function…NOT denature them!

48. Factors affecting Enzymes: 3.CONCENTRATION 1. If there are 10 pizzas to deliver and ONE delivery guy…how fast do you get your pizza (assuming you are last on the list)? 2. What if there are 10 pizzas to be delivered (you are last again) and there are 5 delivery people working? 3. What if there are 10 pizzas to be delivered and 10 delivery people? 4. Okay….now there are 20 pizzas and 10 delivery people? Can the delivery people work any faster? How does this scenario relate to enzyme and substrate concentration?
