Basic Chemistry
The electron
This particle is considered to be the smallest of the three parts of an atom
What is described as this because of its partial charges
What is polar?
This type of macromolecule is made of amino acids
what are proteins
what are Phospholipids
Atomic number
This property of water allows it to absorb a lot of energy
What is high specific heat?
This macromolecule is used by cells for structure and energy storage
What are carbohydrates
This type of transport uses ATP
what is active transport
This type of bond is when electrons are shared unequally
The ability for water to stick to itself is called this
What is cohesion?
This macromolecule can be created by attaching three fatty acids to a glycerol head
What is a lipid
This type of transport occurs without the use of proteins
what is simple diffusion
A substance with a pH of 4 is considered this
This ability of water allows it to dissolve other materials
What is a solvet
This macromolecule is hydrophilic and hydrophobic
What is a phospholipid
This substance helps cell membranes maintain fluidity
These subatomic particles have no charge
What are neutrons
The ability for water to form these bonds allows it to absorb more energy before boiling
what are hydrogen bonds
