BIOCHEMISTRY

All living things are made of elements ,
molecules
,
and compounds .
* Metabolism is
the sum total of all the chemical reactions that occur within the

cells of living things.
Essential Elements of Life

About 25 of the 118 elements are essential to life

Carbon of

and nitrogen make up 96 % living matter.

quantities.

Simple Review

·
Water is a moreure side
slightly and is
-
> one is O one
polar
↳ the
dipole nature of water is due to the diff in
electronegativity of hydrogen and


oxygen.

water forms hydrogen bonds

① Water is
great of it's dissolves substances than
a solvent because polarity >
- more
any
other liquid
② Water is less dense in solid form than in
Liquid because H-bonds are more stable in


the solid form =
they spread out
.




③ break
Water has a
really high heat capacity because a lot of energy is
required to


hydrogen bonds.
