FUNCTION The Molecule of life • Most molecules of living organisms are composed of thousands of atom. these molecules are considered macromolecules • Macromolecules are subdivided into polymers and monomers • polymers: are long chain-like substances made of many smaller molecules linked together by a covalent bond • monomers: smaller molecules covalently bonded which can link to make polymers • the molecules associated with living things are grouped into 4 major categories carbohydrates

representation of resistors and batteries; the only new symbol we introduce is that of the node‚ shown in Figure 4.1 below. It is simply a point where the current divides or joins. We are now ready to analyze circuits. To analyze a circuit we do two things: 1. find the current in each component‚ and 2. find the potential difference across each component. The rules of circuit analysis are called Kirchhoff’s rules. The Loop Rule This rule asserts that the net change in electric potential around any closed

Explore the ways in which these characteristics interact to create a dynamic‚ living religion A religion or religious system is a dynamic‚ living reality. While it can be identified and studied through characteristics such as rituals and sacred texts‚ it is in essence a living thing‚ which is given expression through all its characteristics.

These abnormalities were such things as no arms‚ no legs or very disfigured limbs. Around 15‚000 foetuses were damaged by thalidomide‚ of whom about 12‚000 in 46 countries were born with birth defects‚ with only 8‚000 of them surviving past the first year of life.
