• Ionic = electrons from one molecule are given
away to another molecule.
• Covalent = electrons are shared between the
molecules.
– Polar covalent = shared unequally
– Non-polar covalent = shared equally

• Cohesion = water bonding with itself.
• Adhesion = water bonding with other
substances.

6
• Without it, trees and other plants would not
be able to move water from deep in the
ground to their leaves.
• So what?
– No water = no photosynthesis = dead plants
7
• It keeps them from having large differences in
the high and low daily temperatures.
8
• It turns from a liquid to a gas (vaporizes) at a
high temperature.
• It takes a lot of energy to get the water
molecules to change phases from liquid to
gas.
9
• Oceans and other bodies of water have not
evaporated.
• Evaporative cooling allows organisms to cool
off when hot.
10
11
• Ice floating insulates the remaining water
beneath, allowing organisms to survive the
winter.
• If ice sank, a large portion of our bodies of
water would have frozen over, killing most life
within them.
12
• Surface Tension
13
• Monomers link together to make polymers.

15
• Provide energy (mono, di, and poly)
• Store energy for a short time (poly)
• Form structures (poly)
16
• Mono-, Di-, and Poly- are the prefxes denoting
how many sugar monomers are present.
• The number of sugars can give an indication of
the amount of energy stored within the
molecule.
17
• monosaccharide
18
• Monosaccharide = glucose & fructose
• Disaccharides = sucrose and lactose
• Polysaccharides = starch, glycogen, cellulose
and chitin
19
• Cellulose and chitin are both structural
polysaccharides.
• Chitin forms cell walls in fungi and
exoskeletons in some animals.
• Cellulose forms cell walls in plants.
20
• Both starch and glycogen store sugar.
• Starch is the sugar storage form in plants.
• Glycogen is the sugar storage form in animals.
21
• Starches are found in plants
– Potatoes
– Beans
– Plantains
– Corn
– Actually, all green vegetables are capable of
making starch.
22
• Glycogen is found in the muscles and livers of
mammals.

Waterproofing membranes

24
• Fats, oils, waxes, steroids
25
• Saturated fats:
–
–
–
–
Animal fats
Full of hydrogens
Solids at room temp
Relatively unhealthy
• Unsaturated fats:
–
–
–
–
Plant oils
Have fewer hydrogens
Are liquids at room temperature
Healthy
26
• The monomer of a protein = amino acid.
• The polymer of a protein = polypeptide
27
• Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.
• They link together (via peptide bonds) to form
large structures called proteins (AKA:
polypeptides).
• This small part linking together to form a large
structure is analogous to links coming together to
form a chain.
28
• Build muscle and bone
• Serve as enzymes
• Fight infections (are called antibodies when
doing this)
• Serve as doorways into the cell.
• Serve as regulators of cell activities.

• DNA
• RNA
31
• Nucleotides
32
• 5 carbon sugar
• Phosphate
• Nitrogen base
33
• DNA has deoxyribose sugar in it.
• RNA has ribose sugar in it.
34
• Enzymes
35
• Anything that speeds up a chemical reaction
36
• They lower the activation energy for the
reaction.
– They do not provide energy to the reaction…they
just make the amount of energy needed to start
the reaction be less.
37
• The amount of energy needed to start a
reaction.
38
• Substrates are changed during enzymatic
reactions.
• Enzymes remain unchanged by the reaction
and can be used again.
39
• Each enzyme has a special shape that directly
matches its target substrate.
• This is analogous to how each lock has a
particular shaped key that opens it.
– Wrong shaped key = no opened lock.
