Warm Up 9/23 What biomolecule(s)….. • Found in the nucleus of every cell? • Insulates? • Speeds up chemical reactions? • Made of saccharides? • Contains Carbon? • Made of amino acids? • Provide short term energy storage? • Found in our hair and nails?
WATER ELEMENTS: Hydrogen and Oxygen Building Blocks: None • FUNCTIONS: • Dissolves substances • Transports materials • Maintains temperature • Hydrates
FOUND IN BODY: Interstitial – between tissues Intracellular-inside cells Blood Digestive tract FOODS: Liquids, fruits, many foods
ELEMENTS: Oxygen and Hydrogen plus Ca, P, Na, Cl, K, Fe, I, etc. (electrolytes) BUILDING BLOCKS: Acids and bases FUNCTIONS: Nerve impulses Muscle contractions Water balance Blood pressure reg Body structures Vital to all body functions SALTS – ionic compound pulled apart by water
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.
