QuestionAnswer
how do organisms get the molecule they need to function? The cells and tissues of virtually all organisms are made up of the same basic molecules. Many of these are substances with which we are familiar: our carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and the nnucleic acids.
Why is Bio chemistry important to Biology? All Life depends on chemical reaction: Atoms combining and recombining, compounds being formed and broken own and the formation of new compounds
Proton the number of protons determines the atomic number, it never varies: the location of the proton is in the nucleus the charge is positive(+), size= to neutron
Neutron Added with the proton equals the atomic mass it can vary in number. The location is in the nucleus there is no charge and it equals to proton
Electron equals in number to the protons as a general rule charge are equal and opposite (identified as +-), orbiting the nycleus, negative charge(-), responsible for chemical activity of atoms, flow of energy in living things(nerve impulses)

Structure of DNA and RNA DNA is a double helix formed by base pairs attached to a sugar-phosphate backbone.RNA is a single strand right-handed helix. It's backbone structure is made from ribose sugars, phosphate, and the four bases adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil.
Chemical bond a chemical bind is a union between atoms that is formed when atoms give and take or share electrons

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
