Lecture Notes
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Compounds | combination of elements tied together chemically |
| 2 Compounds | Organic and Inorganic |
| Organic | Living molecules in living things- carbon molecules mainly |
| Inorganic | Non living molecules (carbon inorganic molecules) |
| Ion | A molecule that can dissociate |
| Ionize | To take ions and make separate ex. Salt |
| Dissociate | To take apart |
| Electrolyte | Inorganic molecule; substances that dissolve in water to form ions |
| Non-electrolyte | Substances that do not dissolve in water and do not form ions ex. Sugar |
| Why does sugar not break down? | It is made up of carbon and does not come apart |
| Carbohydrate | CH20; high energy molecule; will not stay with you long |
| Rough form/pure form of carbohydrate | coal/diamond |
| Monosaccharide | 1 sugar |
| Disaccharide | 2 sugars |
| Polysaccharide | Many |
| Lipids | CHO; fat cells (capital "E") |
| Glycerol | 3 carbons linked together |
| Saturated(hydrogenrated) | 1 with fat and lots of hydrogen |
| Unsaturated | 1 double bond |
| Polyunsaturated | More than 2 bonds |
| Protein | CHON; energy molecule- slower to break down |
| How many amino acids in the body | 21 |
| Enzymes | cataylsts; which help control reactions-speed up or slows down (helps control metabolism) |
| Hormones | Some are proteins; ex. insulin |
| Peptide bond | hold amino acids together |
| Peptide chain | 1 or more chains that can be made of protein |
| How many chains equals a peptide | 4 chains |
| Single chain | 21 amino acids |
