DESCRIPTION
Molecule Two or more atoms joined together. Can be made from the same atoms or different atoms.

Atom The smallest units of matter; combines with other atoms to
form molecules. Both living and nonliving things are made from
atoms. Molecule Two or more atoms joined together.Can be made from
the same atoms or different atoms. Molecule made entirely from the
same type of atom.
Pure Element Molecule made entirely from the same type of atom.
Molecules made from different atoms.
Compound Molecules made from different atoms. A compound that
contains carbon atoms.
Organic Compound A compound that contains carbon atoms. An element
found in all living things
Carbon An element found in all living things A molecule that
contains carbon along with other elements
Organic Compound A molecule that contains carbon along with other
elements A small molecule that joins together with other
monomers
(mono = single) A large molecule made from many monomers joined
together
Polymer/Macromolecule A large molecule made from many monomers
joined together (poly = many) The process of joining monomers
together to form polymers
Polymerization The process of joining monomers together to form
polymers Carbohydrate An organic compound that living things use as
their main source of energy Monomer of carbohydrates
Glucose Monomer of carbohydrates Starch A carbohydrate polymer used
by plants to store energy; made from glucose monomers Another
carbohydrate polymer; used by plants for structure
Cellulose Another carbohydrate polymer; used by plants for
structure Lipid X An organic compound that living things use to
store energy; not made from monomers Nucleic Acid An organic
compound that stores and transmits genetic information (DNA)
Monomer of nucleic acid (DNA)
Nucleotide Monomer of nucleic acid (DNA) Protein An organic
compound that gives strength and structure, fights disease, and
speeds up chemical reactions Amino Acid Monomer of protein A
special protein that speeds up the rate of chemical reactions
Enzyme A special protein that speeds up the rate of chemical
reactions Chemical Reaction + = A chemical reaction is a process
that changes one set of chemicals into another set of chemicals.
The coke/mentos explosion is a type of chemical reaction. Process
in which reactants change into products; bonds between atoms
change, creating a new substance. + Reactants Substances that enter
into a chemical reaction.
A chemical reaction is a process that changes one set of chemicals
into another set of chemicals. The coke/mentos explosion is a type
of chemical reaction. Substances that enter into a chemical
reaction. Product New substance(s) created during a chemical
reaction.
A chemical reaction is a process that changes one set of chemicals
into another set of chemicals. The coke/mentos explosion is a type
of chemical reaction. New substance(s) created during a chemical
reaction. Activation Energy A chemical reaction is a process that
changes one set of chemicals into another set of chemicals. The
coke/mentos explosion is a type of chemical reaction. The amount of
energy needed to get a reaction started.High activation energy =
slow, difficult reaction. Enzyme A chemical reaction is a process
that changes one set of chemicals into another set of chemicals.
The coke/mentos explosion is a type of chemical reaction. A protein
that speeds up (catalyzes) chemical reactions by lowering the
activation energy. Substrate Substance an enzyme acts upon and
changes.
