The branch of science that studies the chemistry of living organisms

A group of two or more atoms

Molecules that store and transfer information within the cell and tell the cell how to build proteins

Special molecules used by living organisms to make proteins

This is the simplest form of carbohydrate

The extremely small building blocks of all matter. They are made up of neutrons, protons, and electrons.

The molecule that is made up of 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom

The basic building block of nucleic acids. They are made up of a sugar, a base, and a phosphate group

We get amino acids from both our body and this

Carbohydrates do these two things

The branch of science that studies the properties of matter and how matter interacts with energy

The things that hold together atoms in molecules

The abbreviation for deoxyribonucleic acid

Proteins can create antibodies to fight off these

Lactose is this type of carbohydrate

How much space an object takes up in relation to the amount of matter in that object

A liquid that has more dissolved particles than what could normally fit

The nucleic acid with only one strand

These proteins help carry out chemical reactions in our bodies

These two things affect what type of carbohydrate is made

The things that neutrons and protons are made of

There are 109 types of these.

The part of the cell where DNA is housed

There are this many types of amino acids

There are this many monosaccharides in an oligosaccharide
