Biochemistry Cell unit Why Study think Mrs Morgan

Biochemistry Cell unit

Why Study (think Mrs. Morgan) n Traits n Genes give us a PROTEIN that gives us a trait n Genes located in the Cell n Cells 1 job produce a protein gives trait in body n Traits can be… n Anatomy (actual organs, hair, cartilage, “parts”) n Physiology (chemicals that control the anatomy Proteins!) n Doctors biochemists n Blood test n How would cancer effect this process?

Common Proteins and their Empirical Formulas… n Glucose: n C 6 H 12 O 6 n Testosterone n C 19 H 28 O 2 n Cholesterol n C 27 H 45 OH n Serotonin n C 10 H 1402 N 2 n Estrogen n C 18 H 24 O 2 n Adrenaline n C 8 H 11 O 3 N

We already learned a lot of Biochemistry… n Ecological Cycles n We are going to focus on the Carbon and Energy Cycle 2 cell processes/reactions n n Respiration Photosynthesis

Carbon and Oxygen Cycle n Elements? n Compounds? n Molecules?

Reactions? ? n Take molecules, rearrange them to get something new! n Bonds between certain molecules are broken, separate atoms rearrange and bond to form different molecules n Sometimes energy is required, other times energy is produced n Trick: n Matter can never be created or destroyed!! Equation? Just shown on paper
