1. Biological Molecules

2. ELECTRON: - CHARGE ORBIT AROUND NUCLEUS SAME # AS PROTONS PROTON + CHARGE FOUND IN NUCLEUS SAME # AS ELECTRONS NEUTRON 0 CHARGE FOUND IN NUCLEUS NUMBER VARIES ADD MASS TO ATOM PARTS OF AN ATOM

3. A molecule is a group of ATOMS either alike or different

4. SUBATOMIC PARTICLES ATOMS MOLECULES ELECTRON, PROTON, NEUTRON HYDROGEN, CARBON, IRON, SODIUM O 2, CO 2, WATER, GLUCOSE, DNA

5. Electron Transfer and Ionic Bonding IONIC BONDING: Transfer of electrons from one molecule to another to form a bond

6. Periodic Table

7. Covalent Bonding- two molecules sharing electrons to create a bond.

8. Bonding Polarity one atom (O) has a greater attraction for the electrons than the other atom (H).

9. ORGANIC MOLECULES ALL LIVING THINGS contain organic molecules Carbohydrate Lipids Proteins Nucleic Acids

10. Each kind of organic molecule is made up different monomers (small individual molecules that connect to make up a polymer) Polymer – large molecule composed of repeating individual molecules (monomers) All organic molecules important to life are large polymers.

11. ORGANIC MOLECULES ALL CONTAIN A CARBON backbone, and hydrogen and oxygen. Organic MoleculeMade up of… CarbohydrateC, H, O LipidsC, H, O ProteinsC, H, O, N Nucleic AcidsC, H, O, N, P

12. CARBOHYDRATES Examples - Sugars, starches and cellulose Sources sugar, wheat, rice, corn, potato Used by organisms for quick ENERGY

13. GLUCOSE C_H_O _ (fill in blank) 6 12 6

14. Monosaccharide (basic building block) Polysaccharide MONOMER = POLYMER =

15. LIPIDS Examples – Fats and Oils Sources - waxes, steroids, butter, cholesterol, animal fats Used by organisms for long term energy storage and insulation Do not mix with water

16. Monomers = glycerol = any 3 fatty acids Polymer = 1 glycerol & 3 fatty acids bonded together Fatty acid 1 Fatty acid 2 Fatty acid 3 Glycerol Fatty acid 1 Fatty acid 2 Fatty acid 3

17. C H 0 21 41 6

18. Lipids - phospholipids 1 Glycerol and 2 Fatty acids Make up cell membranes fatty acids are hydrophobic - water fearing phospho end is hydrophilic - water loving

19. PROTEINS Examples – meats, nuts and beans Sources – meats, nuts and beans Uses- makes muscle, hair, nails and enzymes Enzyme: molecule that speeds up or slows down a chemical reaction so that it can occur at body temperature.

20. Monomer – amino acids (20 different kinds) (basic building blocks) AlanineArginine AsparagineAspartic Acid CysteineGlutamic Acid GlutamineGlycine HistidineIsoleucine LeucineLysine MethioninePhenylalanine ProlineSerine ThreonineTryptophan TyrosineValine

21. Polymer – a chain of 50 –500 amino acids bonded by a peptide bond (polypeptide) The order of the amino acids determines what protein you will make and what its function will be.

22. If there are between 50-500 amino acids per protein and 20 different amino acids, how many different kinds of proteins are possible. 50 20 + 51 20 + 52 20 + ….. 500 20 = TMTC

23. hemoglobin transports oxygen in the blood lysozymehydrolyzes bacterial cell walls collagen serves as scaffolding for support of tissues and organs, most abundant protein pepsin hydrolyzes dietary protein in the stomach trypsin hydrolyzes dietary protein in the small intestine casein found in milk, supplies amino acids to newborns insulin acts as a signal for the fed state myoglobin stores oxygen in muscle cells ferritin stores iron in the spleen rhodopsin transmits visual signals fibrin forms the insoluble network of blood clots amylase hydrolyzes starch in the mouth thrombin catalyzes the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin antibody binds to a foreign antigen Some Human Proteins…

24. DNA- double helix

25. NUCLEIC ACIDS Examples: DNA and RNA Sources: Nitrogen, sugars, phosphates Uses - Makes chromosomes (genetic information) Phosphate Sugar Nitrogen base Monomer – Nucleotides

26. Nucleotide How many nucleotides does this DNA molecule contain? 8 Polymer = a chain of nucleotides bonded together

27. NUCLEIC ACIDS direct the cell to produce specific PROTEINS. The CARBOHYDRATES and LIPIDS provide the energy for the cell to make PROTEINS. The PROTEINS your body makes determines your physical traits (hair color, eye color, height) and body functions (blood clotting, carrying oxygen, digesting food…)

28. Properties of Water Hydrogen Bonds not as strong as covalent or ionic bond Cohesion attraction between molecules of the same substance.. Ex: drops of water on smooth surface.

29. Adhesion: attraction between molecules of different substances. The adhesion between water molecules & the molecules of plastic in a water bottle are stronger than cohesion between water molecules.

30. Properties of Water

31. More facts about water… High surface tension. A polar molecule (easily attracted to other water molecules.) Has a high heat of vaporization. Takes a lot of energy to make water to evaporate. Expands when it freezes.
