Unit 1 - Biochemistry Understandings: Understandings: Organisms use energy within a system to grow, reproduce, and maintain balance. Organisms interact with and are dependent on living and nonliving components of the environment. Changes in matter involve the rearrangement and or reorganization of atoms. Chemical reactions involve the gain or loss of energy to form a new substance and the reaction time is influenced by the rate of collision of the particles. Models are used to represent aspects of the natural world and have limitations of size, scale and properties. Critical Vocabulary: Organic compound Carbohydrate Monosaccharide Fatty Acid Polysaccharide Lipid Nucleic acid Nucleotide Protein Biomolecule Calorie Unit 1 - Biochemistry Organisms use energy within a system to grow, reproduce, and maintain balance.
