A very large molecule consisting of many smaller structural units linked together
Macromolecule
-
Type of macromolecule, main source of energy for your body
Carbohydrate
-
What are the monomers of carbs?
glucose
-
What elements make up carbohydrates?
CHO! Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen - twice as many hydrogen as oxygen
-
Nucleotides make up what macromolecule?
Nucleic Acids
-
What elements make up nucleic acids?
CHON P! Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and phosphorous
-
What makes up protein?
Amino Acids- look like a chain wound up
-
What elements make up proteins?
CHON! Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen
-
Type of macromolecule that is a source of stored energy. It insulates the body to maintain normal body temps and they cushion the internal organs for protection.

The study of how organisms interact with their environment
Ecology
-
-
Nonliving features of an environment
Abiotic
-
A community and its environment
Ecosystem
-
Shows the flow of energy
Food web
-
Populations of different species living in the same area
Community
-
Group of organisms of the same species living in the same area
Population
-
Bond where an electron is shared between two atoms
Covalent bond- typically between two non metals
-
A bond where an electron moves completely from one atom to another
Ionic bond- between atoms that have different characteristics like metal and non metals
-
Made of a single cell or a complex combination of cells; exists in an open system and interacts constantly with each other and with their environment
Organism
-
Where one organism is harmed while the other benefits by the interaction
Parasitic relationship
-
Gathering information using your senses
Observation
-
An atom that gains or loses an electron becomes a charged atom
Ion
-
A substance made up of one kind of atom
element, cannot be broken down into a simpler substance
-
Cannot be separated; a solute is dissolved in another substance
Solution
-
2 or more substances which are mixed but are not combined chemically
Mixture
-
Number of protons and neutrons
