Inorganic Molecules

Inorganic molecule can be made up of any element but, they can not contain a carbon atom (2).

Bodies• Water • Oxygen• Carbon Dioxide• Acids• Bases• Electrolytes• Salts(1)(Pg. 44)

Food

• Water• Salt• Pepper• Vinegar • Baking Soda• Gatorade • Sugar

Organic Molecule

Compounds that contain C-C or C-H bonds. Most ingredients

(molecules) we use to cook are (in living things) are organic. (1)(Pg.

66)

Organic Molecule

Most organic molecules are polymers made up of several monomers. (1)

Food example: Fruit salad because the salad is made up of many different fruits.

Cell Membrane The most common membrane is the

plasma membrane, which is the outer boundary of the cell. It is made up of lipids, proteins, and

other molecules. (1)(Pg. 75)

Food Example: Pizza crust would be an example because the crust is

made up of the flour and water and without the crust the toppings would just be all over the place. The crust

is the structure.

Organelles Endoplasmic reticulum (Cookie dough) : This is the site of where the ribosomes attach and perform protein synthesis. Golgi apparatus (sending food to customer) : Packages products and sends them to different parts of the cell. Ribosomes (chocolate chips) : The site of protein synthesis. Mitochondria (microwave) : Site of ATP synthesis, makes most of the energy used in the cell Nucleus (recipe) : Houses the genetic code Lysosomes (digestive system) : enzymes break down cell parts and other particles. Nucleolus: center of the nucleus, formation of ribosomes. (1)(Pg. 75)
