FOUND IN BODY:
FOUND IN FOODS:
WATER
ELEMENTS:
Hydrogen and
Oxygen
Building Blocks:
None
FUNCTIONS:
1. Dissolves
substances
2. Transports
materials
3. Maintains
temperature
4. Hydrates
FOUND IN BODY:
Interstitial – between
tissues
Intracellular-inside
cells
Blood
Digestive tract
FOODS:
Liquids, fruits, many
foods
SALTS –
ionic compound pulled apart by
water
ELEMENTS:
Oxygen and Hydrogen
plus
Ca, P, Na, Cl, K, Fe, I,
etc. (electrolytes)
BUILDING BLOCKS:
Acids and bases
FUNCTIONS:
1.
Nerve impulses
2.
Muscle contractions
3.
Water balance
4.
Blood pressure reg
5.
Body structures
6.
Vital to all body
functions
BODY:
Bones, teeth, blood,
muscles, kidneys
FOODS:
Table salt, meats, fish,
processed and
canned foods, butter
Important to have salts in diet –
Too much: small amount = out urine
large amount = high blood
pressure
Too little: small = out of bones
a lot missing = body functions stop
ASSIGNMENT 1
Read the article on FLUID NEEDS AND
SODIUM NEEDS
Take notes while you read, writing down
between 10 – 15 of the most important
things that stand out to you. Do this for
each article.
ASSIGNMENT 2
Biomolecule review sheet – due next class
QUIZ over your chart (front and back)
next class. I will give questions exactly
like the review sheet, you give the
biomolecule.
