Definition

CHNOP

Carbon

Hydrogen

Nitrogen

Oxygen

Phosphorus

 

Term
subatomic particles
Definition

make up atoms

protons neutrons and electrons

this is the smallest unit of matter

 

Term
atoms
Definition

eg

CHNOP

Term
molecules
Definition

specific atoms put together

held together my chemical bonds

 

specific combo of atoms makes specific molecule

 

eg. sugars, fatty acids,...

Term
macromolecules
Definition

chains of groups of molecules

4 kinds

  • chains of sugars = carbohydrates 
  • chains of fatty acids = lipids
  • chains of amino acids = protiens
  • chains of nucleotides = nucleic acids (dna)
Term
organelles
Definition

made of macromolecules

each have particular structure and function in cells

because each organelle is made of precise macromolecules

 

Term
cell
Definition

organelles put together in precise manner

 

many different cell types, each made of different combo of organelles

Term
tissue
Definition

made up of cells

4 major kinds of tissue

  1. epithelial
  2. connective
  3. muscular
  4. nervous
Term
organ
Definition

2 or more types of tissues get together to form an organ

eg. heart  has epithelia, connective, and muscle tissue

Term
