20. Most atoms in Human Body Hydrogen Oxygen Carbon Nitrogen

21. Inorganic Compounds Primarily composed of elements other than Carbon Organic Compounds Contain the element Carbon

22. Most abundant inorganic compound in living organisms Composed of Hydrogen and Oxygen

23. Universal Solvent – dissolves many substances due to polarity of water Dissolves ionic compounds to produce ions called electrolytes Doesn’t dissolve covalent compounds very well

25. Dissociates to form H + and OH - ions Both are equal in distilled water Gives us the pH scale Below 7 – acidic Above 7 – alkaline 7 - neutral

27. Polarity of water Causes hydrogen bonding – bond between H of one and O of another. Results in water’s unique properties Boiling and Freezing Points Cohesion – attracted to other water molecules – water droplets Adhesion – attracted to other similar molecules – allows movement of water in plants

28. Inorganic even though it contains carbon Source of Carbon and Oxygen in organic compounds by way of photosynthesis

29. Contain the element Carbon Has 4 electrons in outer energy level Can form 4 bonds – either with other carbons or other elements

30. Originally believed to have to come from living organisms Many have been synthesized

31. Often described by structural formulas Show kinds of atoms Show number of atoms Show how atoms are attached to each other

32. Organic Compound important to Life Carbohydrates Proteins Lipids Nucleic Acids

33. Processes (reactions) important to organic compounds Dehydration Synthesis Production of a more complex molecule from 2 or more simpler molecules by removing a water molecule Hydrolysis Breakdown of a more complex molecule into simpler molecules by the addition of a molecule of water – usually during digestion

35. Composed of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen Hydrogen: Oxygen ratio always 2 to 1 Used for energy source, structure, and energy storage Classes Monosaccharides Disaccharides Polysaccharides

36. Monosaccharides – single sugars Most have formula C 6 H 12 O 6 –different structures Examples – glucose, fructose, galactose Glucose – food product of photosynthesis

38. Disaccharides – double sugars Composed of 2 monosaccharides that combine by dehydration synthesis Molecular formula – C 12 H 22 O 11 Examples Sucrose (Table Sugar) – Glucose + Fructose Lactose (Milk Sugar) – Glucose + Galactose

40. Polysaccharides – many sugars Made of many monosaccharides that combine during a series of dehydration syntheses Types Cellulose – structural compound in plants Starch – energy storage in plants Glycogen – energy storage in animal livers; called “animal starch”

42. Composed of Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, and Nitrogen; sometimes Sulfur Made up of 20 different Amino Acid joined together by dehydration synthesis reactions. Peptide Bonds join the amino acids – amino group of one amino acid attaches to carboxyl group of another amino acid
