Chemistry + Biology
The study of organic compounds.
What is a ORGANIC CHEMISTRY?
mixtures of hydrocarbons that formed from the remains of plants or animals.
What are FOSSIL FUELS?
all of these compounds contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
What are BIOCHEMICAL COMPOUNDS?
This combines the study of physics and biology to examine systems of living things.
What is BIOPHYSICS OR BIOLOGICAL PHYSICS?
this is the world's fastest land animal, capable of reaching speeds of up to 70 mph.
What are CHEETAHS?
What are FORMS OF CARBON?
coal, natural gas, and petroleum
What are THE THREE MAIN TYPES OF FOSSIL FUELS?
carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids.
What are the classes of biochemical compounds?
This simple machine works by converting potential energy into kinetic energy, then kinetic energy into potential energy over and over again.
What is a SWING?
This burns cleaner, less soot than coal, making it a desirable fuel.
What are is NATURAL GAS?
compounds that contain only carbon and hydrogen.
What are HYDROCARBONS?
to release energy used to power cars, cook food, and heat buildings.
Why do we burn fossil fuels?
All living thigs need energy and they get this energy through this.
What are CHEMICAL REACTIONS?
What is INERTIA?
What is a GLUCOSE MOLECULE?
How can carbon atoms be arranged?
this causes hot air balloons to rise by convection.
What is the energy from propane combustion?
These are some of the most important biochemical reactions involved in making food.
What are PHOTOSYNTHESIS, AND CELLULAR RESPIRATION (releasing energy from food.)
When THIS force is greater than the force of gravity, an airplane is able to fly.
What is LIFT.
found in citrus fruits, this is needed by your body for healthy and growth.
What is VITAMIN C?
Butane and isobutane are examples of these.
What are isomers?
What is CARBON MONOXIDE?
Without these, our bodies would not break down the food we eat.
What are ENZYMES?
knowing the work of THIS force, a forensic engineer can make a good estimate of a car's speed before the driver hit the breaks.
What is FRICTION?
Global Positioning Systems can accurately direct you to any location using THESE.
What are SATELLITES?
