Study Notes
Cell Biology
- A cell is the basic structural and functional unit of living organisms, capable of reproducing itself and maintaining homeostasis.
Organelles
- The mitochondria is responsible for energy production in a cell through cellular respiration.
Chemical Bonds and Reactions
- Ionic bonds are typically formed between two elements with a large difference in electronegativity, often involving metals and nonmetals.
- Nonmetals tend to gain electrons in a chemical reaction, forming anions.
- Metals are characterized by their ability to lose electrons, forming cations, and are often highly reactive.
