Cellular Composition
• Made up of at least one cell
• Unicellular - made of one cell (bacteria, amoeba,
paramecium)
2. Reproduction
• Asexual- cell division (mitosis)—one cell
becomes two Ex: bacteria
• Examples:
• 1. Bird migration- behavioral adaptation
6. Specific Organization
• Certain parts do specific jobs (ex:
heart, nucleus, chloroplasts, etc)
7. Homeostasis
•Maintaining the same state
Homeo = same, steady
Stasis = state
Examples:
-Water balance inside and outside of cell
-Human body temperature
*Cells function best when these are in
balance
8. Responsiveness
• Reaction(s) to various stimuli
Atoms →Molecules →
organelles → cells

• Trace elements are common additives to food and
water
• The atomic theory states that elements are made of tiny particles
called atoms.
• Number of protons and the number of neutrons determine an
(element's mass number):
mass number = protons + neutrons
• the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom of an
atom is represented by the atomic symbol
– Hydrogen = H
– Sodium = Na (Natrium)
– Chloride = Cl
Atomic Structure
Atomic Structure
• The atomic number and mass number are often included with the
chemical symbol.

Atomic number 6
The atomic mass is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons

Isotopes النظائر
• The first shell is closest to the nucleus and have the lowest
potential energy
• Electrons in the second have more energy and so on ..
• Potential energy()الطاقة الكامنة: is energy that is
stored – or conserved - in an object or
substance

• Atoms can lose, gain, or share electrons to satisfy octet rule (fill
outermost shell)
octet rule refers to the tendency of atoms to prefer to have eight
electrons in the valence shell. When atoms have fewer than eight
electrons, they tend to react and form more stable compounds

Polar water molecules are attracted to one
another and can form hydrogen bonds.
Chemical Reactions
• When molecules or compounds are chemically changed
it is called a chemical reaction.
