Hole’s Human Anatomy and Physiology Twelfth Edition Shier w Butler w Lewis Chapter 2 Chemical Basis of Life Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 1 2.1: Introduction Why study chemistry in an Anatomy and Physiology class? - Body functions depend on cellular functions - Cellular functions result from chemical changes - Biochemistry helps to explain physiological processes 2 2.2: Structure of Matter Matter – anything that takes up space and has mass (weight). It is composed of elements. Elements – composed of chemically identical atoms: • Bulk elements – required by the body in large amounts • Trace elements - required by the body in small amounts • Ultratrace elements – required by the body in very minute amounts Atoms – smallest particle of an element 3 Atomic Structure Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. Atoms - composed of subatomic particles: Neutron (n0) - • Proton – carries a single positive charge Proton (p+) • Neutron – carries no electrical charge • Electron – carries a single negative charge Nucleus • Central part of atom • Composed of protons and neutrons • Electrons move around the nucleus 0 + + 0 0 0 + Lithium (Li) - Electron (e–) Nucleus 4 Atomic Number and Atomic Weight Atomic Number • Number of protons in the nucleus of one atom • Each element has a unique atomic number • Equals the number of electrons in the atom Atomic Weight (Mass) • The number of protons plus the number of neutrons in one atom • Electrons do not contribute to the weight of the atom 5 Isotopes Isotopes • Atoms with the same atomic numbers but with different atomic weights • Atoms with the same number of protons and electrons but a different number of neutrons • Oxygen often forms isotopes (O16, O17, and O18) • Unstable isotopes are radioactive; they emit energy or atomic fragments 6 Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.
