Matter
These structures make up matter and cannot be broken down further
Elements
These elements make up water
Oxygen and Hydrogen
Organic compounds are
Carbon based
This is used to balance elements and form compounds
A bond
depending on the energy level, matter can have these three properties
solid, liquid, gas
This is the chemical make up of water
H2O
Large compounds are known as
Macromolecules
This compound in the biological energy source
ATP (adenosine Triphosphate)
These are the 4 major elements for life
Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen
These bonds are constantly breaking and reforming between water molecules
Hydrogen Bonds
The general term for the building blocks of macromolecules
monomers
The bond causes the compound to have slightly charged potions
Polar Covalent Bond
These structures of an atom are exchanged to form bonds between elements
Electrons
This bond give water its major property allowing it to dissolve polar compounds
Polar Covalent
This is the portion of a compound that influences how that compound will react
Functional groups
Hydrogen bonds work by using _________________ to hold molecules together
attractive forces
living and non-living matter are made up of
the same elements
The bonds found in water allow for these three properties of water
Adhesion
Cohesion
Capillarity
* Will accept: Polar
This is the reaction used to break down macromolecule carbon compounds
Hydrolysis
This reaction is used to build the bond between monomers
Condensation/Dehydration
