Problem Set - Small Molecules (Campbell Chapters 2 and 3) 1. What are the SPONCH elements and what is common among these elements that make them suitable for life? State the four most frequently occurring of the SPONCH elements. Which of the SPONCH elements is found in each of the large biomolecules (carbohydrates‚ proteins‚ lipids‚ nucleic acids). The SPONCH elements are Sulfur‚ Phosphorus‚ Oxygen‚ Nitrogen‚ Carbon and Hydrogen. These are the five key elements that compose living

B) What is the Cough Reflex? Describe the process that Cari’s respiratory system is using to clear her lungs by coughing? a. The cough reflex is used to get things like irritants and fluid which causes us to have sputum out of the nasal passage and pharynx. The cilia or little hairs that are in our trachea is trying to

important to understand and examine the water molecule in order to ascertain how it brought about Earth’s thriving ecosystem and how important it is for us today. Water is a strong solvent‚ it’s a very unique molecule that can breaks and reforms constantly. Each water molecule consists acid What is acid rain? Acid rain is the term for pollution caused ... of one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms. The oxygen atom also called the "apex of the water molecule" bears a slight electronegative charge while

Case Study for Respiratory Disorders #2 Scenario A.W.‚ a 52-year-old woman disabled from severe emphysema‚ was walking at a mall when she suddenly grabbed her right side and gasped‚ “Oh‚ something just popped.” A.W. whispered to her walking companion‚ “I can’t get any air.” Her companion yelled for someone to call 911 and helped her to the nearest bench. By the time the rescue unit arrived‚ A.W. was stuporous and in severe respiratory distress. She was intubated‚ an IV of lactated Ringer’s (LR)

molecule of water A chemist’s view of the world is not as narrow as one might think! Yes‚ we start with the atom‚ and then go on to the rules governing the kinds of structural units that can be made from them. We are taught early on to predict the properties of bulk matter from these geometric arrangements. And then we come to H2O‚ and are shocked to find that many of these predictions are way off‚ and that water (and by implication‚ life itself) should not even exist on our planet! But we soon

Modeling Molecules Introduction: You can represent a molecule two-dimensionally‚ as a structural formula or electron dot structure. Although such models are useful in certain contexts‚ they do not accurately represent bond angles between atoms or shapes of molecules. In this activity‚ you will construct three-dimensional models of several molecules. You will use electron dot structures and structural formulas to inform how you construct the three-dimensional models. Materials: jelly beans

My Journey through Life Nothing is more important than life‚ even if it contained darkness or lightness. Everyone on earth has a special life; your life is different from others. Life has a lot of good and bad things‚ a lot of fun and unhappy situations we face during our lives. My mother has always told me‚ "Life is as complicated as you make it." Many people have contributed a positive impact to me. Because of them‚ I have definitely become what I am today. Four people have always significantly

Journey through Slavery Episode 1 Terrible Transformation After watching this video my knowledge on the subject of Slavery has expanded greatly. More information has changed my view on slavery itself. Here are some of the things I have learned and my personal opinion about the video. Slavery did not begin when the blacks first stepped foot on to American land‚ it took many years of racial conflicts before slavery came to pass. When Africans first came to America they came seeking adventure‚ riches
