What is everything composed of?• Everything around you is made of matter and energy.
• Matter: anything that has mass and takes up space.
• Energy: anything that brings about change.

What are atoms?• All matter is made up of atoms.
• Center of an atom is its nucleus, which contains protons and neutrons.
• Outside of the nucleus are the electrons, which are involved in chemical reactions.

What are elements?• Elements: structure only made up of one type of atom.• Cannot be broken down into simpler form by ordinary
chemical reactions.• Arranged in a chart known as the periodic table of the
elements.• All living things are made up of a combination of
different elements.

What elements are in your body?

What are compounds?• Compounds are made up of two or more elements in exact proportions.
• Compounds have different properties from the elements they are made from.
• Compounds are composed of molecules.• Molecule: a group of atoms held together by the energy of chemical bonds.
• Molecular Compounds form when different atoms share their outer-most electrons and bond together.

What are ionic compounds?• Ions: electrically charged atoms, positive or negative.• Ions of opposite charges attract to one another to form
electrically neutral compounds, known as ionic compounds.
• Example: NaCl (salt)

What are Mixtures?• Mixture: combination of substances in which individual
substances keep their own properties.• Solution: mixture in which 2 or more substances are mixed evenly.• Suspension: forms when a liquid or gas has another substances
evenly spread throughout it.

What are organic compounds?• Organic compounds contain carbon and hydrogen
and are associate with living/once living things.• Carbohydrates: supply energy for cell processes• Lipids: store and release large amounts of energy• Proteins: are the building blocks of many structures• Amino Acids: smaller molecules that make up proteins• Enzymes: proteins that regulate nearly all chemical
reactions in cells• Nucleic acids: store important coded information in
cells

Why is water important?• Living things are composed of more than 50% water and
depend on it to survive.• All chemical reactions in living things take place in water
solutions.• Most living things use water to transport materials
through their bodies.

How do cells get the materials they need to do work?• Materials move in and out of the cell through the cell
membrane. • Water and oxygen can cross the membrane through a
process known as diffusion. • The cell membrane is semipermeable, meaning that it
only allows certain substances to pass through it.
![Page 12: Cell processes](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051821/56815c38550346895dca28a7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
What are diffusion & osmosis?• Diffusion is the movement of particles from areas of high
concentration to areas of low concentration.• Osmosis is the diffusion of water of water through a
membrane.

How do small particles enter/leave the cell?• Smaller particles, such as sugars, can cross the cell membrane through protein channels.
• Passive Transport: the movement of particles from areas of high to low concentration through the cell membrane without using energy.• Examples: diffusion and osmosis
• Active Transport: the movement of particles from areas of low concentration to high concentration. This process requires ENERGY.

How do large particles enter/leave a cell?
• Endocytosis: process that occurs when a cell surrounds a large particle and encloses it in a vesicle (a sac formed from a piece of the cell membrane) to bring the particle into the cell.
• Exocytosis: process that occurs when a cell uses a vesicle to move a particle from inside the cell to outside a cell.
• Both of these processes require energy from the cell.

Are endocytosis and exocytosis examples of active or passive transport?

Are diffusion and osmosis examples of active or passive transport?

How do plants make food?• The major source of energy for life on earth is the sun.• Plants use Carbon Dioxide, water, and the sun’s energy to
make their own food through photosynthesis.• Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts.• Plants make glucose (a simple sugar) as their food
source and expel oxygen as a waste.

How do organisms obtain energy by eating food?• Cellular Respiration: cells use oxygen to break down food
• Takes place in the mitochondria• To get energy, cells must break down glucose.• During cellular respiration, glucose is broken down into carbon
dioxide and water.• ENERGY is released and stored in a molecule called ATP.• Essentially, cellular respiration is the opposite of photosynthesis!

How do organisms obtain energy by eating food?• Fermentation: food is broken down without oxygen.• Used by some bacteria and fungi.• Cells in other organisms may use fermentation when
oxygen isn’t available for cellular respiration.• Example: muscle building, lactic acid formation

The total of all chemical reactions in an organism is called metabolism.
