Two types of monosaccharides bonded together to form a disaccharide
Polysaccharides[Complex carbohydrates] - Two or more monosaccharides bond together, form a carbohydrates called a POLYSACCHARIDES
Lipids - Include substances such as fats and oil
Proteins - Made of smaller units called amino acids[monomers]
Nucleic acids - Consist of one or two chains of nucleotides held together by chemical bonds
Valence Electrons - These are the electrons that are transferred or shared when atoms bond together.
What makes an element reactive?
An incompletevalenceelectron level.
Alkaline Earth Metals
They are never found uncombined in nature.
Boron Family - Atoms in this family have 3 valence electrons.
Organiccompounds
-Make up organisms
-help organisms carry out life processes.
help organisms carry out life processes.All contain the elements carbon & hydrogenen
ProteinStructure - Amino acids can bond together to form short chains called peptides or longer chains called polypeptides
Non polar covalent bond - When two atoms of the same element share electrons, they are shared equally.
Polar Covalent bond - When atoms of different elements share electrons, the shared electrons tend to be pulled closer to one element than the other (because of electronegativity) and results in partial charges on the atoms.
