This comprehensive page covers fundamental concepts of biological molecules and their structural components in AP Biology Unit 1. The content explores various molecular structures and their interactions, with particular emphasis on water molecules and major biomolecules.
Definition: Covalent bonds are chemical bonds where atoms share electrons, with oxygen having a higher electronegativity leading to unequal electron sharing.
Highlight: Water's polar nature results from oxygen's higher electronegativity, creating an unequal sharing of electrons between oxygen and hydrogen atoms.
Vocabulary:
Example: The four levels of protein structure demonstrate increasing complexity:
Quote: "Living systems need a constant input of energy, mainly stored in chemical bonds."
The page also details the structure of nucleotides, essential components of DNA and RNA, featuring:
Types of proteins and their structures are extensively covered, emphasizing the importance of R-groups in determining amino acid properties (Hydrophobic, Hydrophilic, Ionic).
