1 Matter movement: Large organic molecules (or polymers: carbohydrates, fats/lipids, proteins) enter into the cow and move through the digestive system
Most of the molecules in living things are organic molecules They contain carbon and hydrogen Hydrolysis - Polymers are broken down by, which is
“Giant” molecules • Large molecules made from thousands or even hundreds of thousands of smaller molecules • Formed by a process called polymerization,
Organic molecules contain carbon and hydrogen atoms bonded to other atoms Hydrolysis (“water breaking”) reactions break down polymers in reverse of
protein called alcohol dehydrogenase, which breaks down alcohol in the body The architecture of a large biological molecule plays an essential role in its
I smaller poised to form larger building blocks H Carbohydrates Carbohydrates are the most common organic molecule because they make up most plant
Compounds are broken down into 2 general categories: • Inorganic Compounds: LARGE organic molecules Macromolecules are broken down by Hydrolysis
An element is a pure substance that cannot be broken down into other types of adds water to an organic molecule and breaks the large molecule into two
There are 75 isomers of C10H22 • We need a way to name molecules that doesn't require memorizing a huge number of prefixes Butane
breakdown food (digestion) into small organic molecules, move the small organic Atomic-molecular scale: Large organic molecules in the bread are broken
