Why study chemistry in an Anatomy and Physiology class?
- body functions depend on cellular functions
- cellular functions result from chemical changes
- biochemistry helps to explain physiological processes, and develop new drugs and methods for treating diseases

STRUCTURE OF MATTER
3
Matter – anything that takes up space and has weight; composed of elements
Elements – composed of chemically identical atoms • bulk elements – required by the body in large amounts • trace elements – required by the body in small amounts
Atoms – smallest particle of an element

ATOMIC STRUCTURE
4
Atoms - composed of subatomic particles:
• proton – carries a single positive charge • neutron – carries no electrical charge • electron – carries a single negative charge
Nucleus • central part of atom • composed of protons and neutrons • electrons move around the nucleus

ATOMIC NUMBER AND ATOMIC WEIGHT
5
Atomic Number • number of protons in the nucleus of one atom • each element has a unique atomic number • equals the number of electrons in the atom
Atomic Weight • the number of protons plus the number of neutrons in one atom • electrons do not contribute to the weight of the atom
