nucleic acids. Each classification performs specific functions that allow cells to grow and survive. Macromolecules can be either split or bonded through dehydration synthesis or hydrolysis. Dehydration synthesis occurs when water is released‚ electrons become shared‚ covalently bonding two monomers together. Hydrolysis takes place when water is added to a polymer‚ energy is released and the covalent bonds break‚ turning the polymer into monomers. The ratio of carbon to hydrogen to oxygen is 1:2:1

calcium hypochlorite solution is basic. This is due to the hydrolysis performed by the hypochlorite ion‚ as hypochlorous acid is weak‚ but calcium hydroxide is a strong base. As a result‚ the hypochlorite ion is a strong conjugate base‚ and the calcium ion is a weak conjugate acid: ClO− + H2O → HClO + OH− Similarly‚ calcium hypochlorite reacts with hydrochloric acid to form calcium chloride‚ water and gaseous chlorine: Ca(OCl)2 + 4 HCl → CaCl2 + 2 H2O + 2 Cl2 Uses[edit] Calcium hypochlorite

Organic Chemistry/Biochemistry 1: Compounds Important to Life • Biologists classify compounds into organic compounds and inorganic compounds. Organic Compound: a compound that is derived from living things and contains carbon Inorganic Compound: a compound generally derived nonliving things • Water Water is an inorganic molecule with unique properties that make it one of the most important compounds for living things. In the water molecule (H2O)‚ the hydrogen and oxygen atoms bond

are the fundamentals of histology and techniques in histochemistry. This experiment involved exercising free-hand sectioning techniques‚ learning maceration procedures and application of staining techniques. Sudan dye for Lipids and IKI test for starch were applied on section stem‚ root and leaf parts of Tridax procumbens. Stem cross-section of T. procumbens showed distinct ground tissues and fourteen to sixteen vascular bundles organized into a ring. The root sections show a central stele surrounded
