Cancerous throat tissue

Isotopes use to diagnose disease

Give a molecule similar to glucose that has a radioactive tag

PET scan picks up the released radiation and detects areas of high metabolism

shows the concentration of radioactive tracer bound to monoamine oxidase B (MAO B). Red shows the highest concentration.

MAO B is important because it breaks down the chemicals that allow nerve cells to communicate and regulate blood pressure.

Hydrogen bond

Page 24: Atoms, elements, molecules, compounds Basic Chemistry …. But this is Biology?????

Strong attraction for electrons

Page 25: Atoms, elements, molecules, compounds Basic Chemistry …. But this is Biology?????

Cohesion of water → water sticking to itself

• Does this because of hydrogen bonding

• Results in water having surface tension– “film” on top of

water

Page 26: Atoms, elements, molecules, compounds Basic Chemistry …. But this is Biology?????
Page 27: Atoms, elements, molecules, compounds Basic Chemistry …. But this is Biology?????

Transpiration

• Uses cohesion and adhesion to move water from the roots to top of a tree

Temperature moderation

Water resists changes in temperature

Water can absorb and release a lot of thermal energy with a small change in temperature

ex: lake temperatures

Page 32: Atoms, elements, molecules, compounds Basic Chemistry …. But this is Biology?????

Feb: 15.7° FJuly: 70.4 ° F

Feb: 44.3° FJuly: 65.3 ° F

moderate temperatures at coasts

Page 33: Atoms, elements, molecules, compounds Basic Chemistry …. But this is Biology?????

ex: evaporative cooling

-when water evaporates from our skin, it takes a lot of thermal energy with it

Page 34: Atoms, elements, molecules, compounds Basic Chemistry …. But this is Biology?????

Density

Water is densest at 4° C

Ice is less dense than liquid water

Provides insulation and allows wildlife to survive under a layer of ice

Ice floats

Page 35: Atoms, elements, molecules, compounds Basic Chemistry …. But this is Biology?????

Water is an almost universal solvent

Ionic compounds (like salt) will dissolve in water

Polar molecules will dissolve in water(sugar)

In a solution the SOLVENT is the substance in a greater amount

The SOLUTE is the substance present in a lesser amount

• A few water molecules can break apart into ions– hydrogen ions (H+)– hydroxide ions (OH–)

pH

Page 39: Atoms, elements, molecules, compounds Basic Chemistry …. But this is Biology?????

• Acids vs. bases– An acid is anything that INCREASES the

relative concentration of H+– A base is anything that DECREASES the

relative concentration of H+• Either by adding OH- or removing H+

pH

Page 40: Atoms, elements, molecules, compounds Basic Chemistry …. But this is Biology?????

• A pH scale (pH = potential of hydrogen) is used to describe whether a solution is acidic or basic– pH ranges from 0 (most acidic) to 14 (most

basic)– A solution that is neither acidic or basic is

neutral (pH = 7)

Solution A has a pH = 4Solution B has a pH = 2

How much more acidic is Solution B?

Solution C has a pH = 9Solution D has a pH = 12

How much more H+ ions does solution C have compared to solution D?

Page 43: Atoms, elements, molecules, compounds Basic Chemistry …. But this is Biology?????

Why is pH important?

• Different areas of the body have different pH values– Ex: stomach

blood

• If the pH varies from this value, proteins lose their shape and don’t work

Page 44: Atoms, elements, molecules, compounds Basic Chemistry …. But this is Biology?????

Molecules that can accept or release H+→ resist change in pH

Are usually weak acid/base pairs
