sigma
electron orbital
energy layers around the nucleus
solvent
what molecules dissolve in
type of redox reaction
molecules lose electrons (energy)
also called "electron donor"
oxidation
acceptable range
set point
hydrophobic
do not dissolve in water (x the water)
what the body is made up of
structure
anatomy
builds something
bonds formed
energy stored
anabolic chemical reaction
reduction
redox reaction
molecule gains electrons (energy)
also called "electron acceptor"
its charge has been reduced
what molecules dissolve in
solvent
when electrons are shared unequally
shared electrons are pulled more towards one of the atoms
polar covalent bonds
homeostasis
maintaining a stable internal environment
catabolic chemical reaction
breaks something down
bonds broken
energy released
lactose
milk sugar
carbon, hydrogen, oxygen
provides energy
organized in rings polar molecule
carbohydrate characteristics
mucous membrane
internal lining of tracts (inner surface of organs)
when electrons are shared equally
nonpolar covalent bonds
redox chemical reactions
breaking some bonds + forming others to pass along energy as electrons
oxidation
reduction
in the outermost orbital
valance electrons
occurs if blood PH is greater than 7.45
alkalosis
weak acids + bases
buffers
physiology
function
how parts of the body work
ions
charged atoms (any change)
assess change around a set point
control center
ionic bonds
when valance electrons are transforms from one atom to another
polysaccharides
many monosaccharides linked together
