You will get an overview of atoms and isotopes, electron energy levels, and chemical bonds.50139609398000Chapter 3 - Water A Polar Molecule Mr. Andersen explains why water is a polar molecule. He also explains why this gives water properties like cohesion, high specific heat, less dense ice, and the ability to act as a solvent. All of these properties are due to hydrogen bonding.Chapter 5 HYPERLINK ""042 - Biological MoleculesPaul Andersen describes the four major biological molecules found in living things. He begins with a brief discussion of polymerization. Dehydration synthesis is used to connect monomers into polymers and hydrolysis breaks them down again. The major characteristics of nucleic acids are described as well as their directionality from 3' to 5' end. Protein structure is describes as well as the structure of its monomers; amino acids. The carboxyl and amino ends of a protein are described. The major groups of lipids are included with a brief discussion of saturated, unsaturated and trans-fats. Finally carbohydrates and their sugar monomers are discussed.Properties of Water LabProceduresStation #1: Freeze!Observe the differences between a can of soda that was frozen, and a can of soda that remained at room temperatureStation #2: Dish-and-ClipsMaterials: paper clip, petri dish, tweezers, water in a beaker, paper towelsAfter drying off the paperclip with a paper towel, use the tweezers to gently set the paperclip onto the surface of the water.When finished, refill the dish if necessary; place the paper clip on the paper towel to dry.Station #3: Stir It UpMaterials: stirring rod, graduated cylinder, water in a beakerPour water from the beaker along the stirring rod and down into the graduated cylinderPour the water back into the beakerStation #4: Sink or SwimMaterials: tongs, ice cubes (d=0.917 g/mL), beaker of water, beaker of ethanol (d=0.789 g/mL)CAUTION: ETHANOL IS HIGHLY POISONOUS! DO NOT DRINKUsing tongs, place an ice cube in each beakerWhen finished, leave materials as you found them. If more ice cubes are needed notify your teacherStation #5: Stop on a DimeMaterials: dropper, dime, beaker of waterMake a prediction of how many drops of water will "fit" on the dime before it spills over the edgeCounting drops as you go, use the dropper to carefully add drops of water to the top of the dime.Continue to add drops until water spills over the edge. Record the total number of drops.Station #6: Much Color-ado About NothingMaterials: food coloring, 2 test tubes, 2 10mL graduated cylinders, water in a beaker, oil in a beakerMeasure and add 5mL of water to one test tube and 5mL of oil to the other test tube.Add 2-3 drops of food coloring to each test tube. Do not shake the test tubes. When finished, pour the test tube with water and food coloring down the sink, and pour the test tube with oil and food coloring into the garbage can.Station #7: To Wax Philosophic Materials: wax paper, dropper, water in beakerUsing the dropper, form a small puddle (about the size of a dim) on the wax paperPlace the tip of the dropper in the center of the puddle and slowly drag the tip of the dropper around the wax paper.When finished, dump the water back into the beaker.Station #8: Anit-GravityMaterials: paper towel, shallow dish of water, staplerFold a paper towel in half, then roll it into a tube which has a diameter smaller than that of the dish.Stand the rolled paper town in the dish and observe.Station #9: Loony BallooneyMaterials: paper towels, balloon, water in buret, buret stand, beaker of waterRub the balloon with the paper towel.Open the buret so a stream of water flows.Bring the balloon near (but not touching) the stream of water.When finished, refill the buret with waterPipe-Cleaner ProteinsYour Instructions…Work with a partner. One partner gets two long pieces of pipe cleaner from the teacher, and the other gets 8 felt pens. You’ll need the following 8 colours: red, yellow, brown, green, orange, blue, purple, pink. Each partner will colour one of the pipe cleaners.Starting at one end of the pipe cleaner, colour a 2 cm segment with one of the colours of felt pen (choose any colour you like to start with). Then leave a 3 cm space and colour another 2 cm segment a different colour, then continue on in the same fashion down the whole length of the pipe cleaner. Again, the order of colours is up to you (don’t use the order listed in step 1 though), but only use each colour once. Make sure that the order you choose is NOT the same as your partners. Write out the order in the boxes below:Strand 1Strand 2Once coloured from end to end, what you have represents a chain of amino acids. The coloured segments represent the amino acids, and the uncoloured segments represent the bonds.In the box to the right, draw an amino acid and label the groups on it.How many kinds of R groups are there?Draw a dipeptide, and colour the bond that forms between the two amino acids red.What is the name of the bond that forms between two amino acids?What type of bond is this, and what is special about it?What do you call a chain of 8 amino acids?The straight chain that you’ve just made represents what level of protein structure?Wrap the pipecleaner around a pencil to form a spiral shape.Draw the shape in the box to the rightWhat is the name of this shape?What causes it?What level of protein structure does it represent?Suppose that there is an attraction between the blue and the orange amino acids. Let’s also suppose that a “disulfide bridge” (a covalent bond that forms between sulfur atoms in “R” groups) forms between the red and green amino acid. Let’s further suppose that there is repulsion between the purple and yellow amino acids. Make your amino acid chain assume the shape that would seem the most logical, based on the information above.a.What level of protein structure does the chain represent now?pare the shape of your protein chain to that of your partners, as well as that of two other people in the class. Are they the same? What is responsible for the difference?c.Make a sketch of your chain in the box to the right.Join your amino acid chain to the one that your partner made, in a way that makes sense based on the information given in step 5.

Molecules and atoms from the environment are necessary to build new molecules.Evidence of student learning is a demonstrated understanding of each of the following:1. Carbon moves from the environment to organisms where it is used to build carbohydrates, proteins, lipids or nucleic acids. Carbon is used in storage compounds and cell formation in all organisms.2. Nitrogen moves from the environment to organisms where it is used in building proteins and nucleic acids.3. Phosphorus moves from the environment to organisms where it is used in nucleic acids and certain lipids.student objectives: ?4. Living systems depend on properties of water that result from its polarity and hydrogen bonding.To demonstrate understanding of this concept, be able to explain water’s:CohesionAdhesionHigh specific heat capacityUniversal solvent supports reactionsHeat of vaporizationHeat of fusionthermal conductivityStudent objectives: why is matter necessary for biological systems? explain the uses of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorous and sulfur in biological systems.Diagram the exchange of matter between organisms and the environment.what function does nitrogen serve in proteins? ?In nucleic acids?what function does phosphorus serve in nucleic acids? ?In phospholipids?Why do biological systems need water?How does the structure of a water molecule relate to its function(s)?How does the polarity of water lead to the emergence of unique properties in liquid water?Enduring understanding 4.A: Interactions within biological systems lead to complex properties.Essential knowledge 4.A.1: The subcomponents of biological molecules and their sequence determine the properties of that molecule.a. Structure and function of polymers are derived from the way their monomers are assembled.Evidence of student learning is a demonstrated understanding of each of the following:1. In nucleic acids, biological information is encoded in sequences of nucleotide monomers. Each nucleotide has structural components: a five-carbon sugar (deoxyribose or ribose), a phosphate and a nitrogen base (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine or uracil). DNA and RNA differ in function and differ slightly in structure, and these structural differences account for the differing functions. 2. In proteins, the specific order of amino acids in a polypeptide (primary structure) interacts with the environment to determine the overall shape of the protein, which also involves secondary tertiary and quaternary structure and, thus, its function. The R group of an amino acid can be categorized by chemical properties (hydrophobic, hydrophilic and ionic), and the interactions of these R groups determine structure and function of that region of the protein. 3. In general, lipids are nonpolar; however, phospholipids exhibit structural properties, with polar regions that interact with other polar molecules such as water, and with nonpolar regions where differences in saturation determine the structure and function of lipids. 4. ?Carbohydrates are composed of sugar monomers whose structures and bonding with each other by dehydration synthesis determine the properties and functions of the molecules. Illustrative examples include: cellulose versus starch.b. Directionality influences structure and function of the polymer.Evidence of student learning is a demonstrated understanding of each of the following:1. ?Nucleic acids have ends, defined by the 3' and 5' carbons of the sugar in the nucleotide, that determine the direction in which complementary nucleotides are added during DNA synthesis and the direction in which transcription occurs (from 5' to 3'). 2. ?Proteins have an amino (NH2) end and a carboxyl (COOH) end, and consist of a linear sequence of amino acids connected by the formation of peptide bonds by dehydration synthesis between the amino and carboxyl groups of adjacent monomers.3. ?The nature of the bonding between carbohydrate subunits determines their relative orientation in the carbohydrate, which then determines the secondary structure of the carbohydrate.Student objectives:Compare the synthesis and decomposition of biological macromolecules.Where does the energy needed to drive the synthesis of biological macromolecules come from?How does the structure of <polysaccharides, proteins, nucleic acids> influence the function of those molecules?How does the structure of DNA contribute to it’s roles in protein synthesis and heritability?Why is DNA a good molecule for information storage?How do the differences in the structure of DNA and RNA contribute to the difference in the functions of those molecules?Explain how the sequence of amino acids in a protein determines each level of that protein’s structure.Explain how the conditions of the environment that a protein is in affect the structure and function of that protein.Explain how the structure of lipids determines the polarity of the molecule.If the chemistry of water occurs in aqueous solution, why are lipids useful in biological systems?Why is starch easily digested by animals, while cellulose isn’t?Explain how directionality influences structure and function of the following polymer:1. ?Nucleic acids2. Proteins3. ?CarbohydratesLearning Objectives:The student is able to explain the connection between the sequence and the subcomponents of a biological polymer and its properties. The student is able to refine representations and models to explain how the subcomponents of a biological polymer and their sequence determine the properties of that polymer. The student is able to use models to predict and justify that changes in the subcomponents of a biological polymer affect the functionality of the molecule. ................
