Study Notes
Integers and Their Properties
- An integer is a whole number, both positive and negative, including zero.
- A positive number's additive inverse is its negative counterpart.
- The set of integers is denoted by the symbol $\mathbb{Z}$ in mathematics.
- A subset of the integers can include natural numbers and their negatives.
- All integers are also real numbers, but not all real numbers are integers, like fractions or irrational numbers.
- The set of integers has infinite cardinality.
Nutrients and Their Importance
- Nutrients are substances that provide essential elements for growth, metabolism, and overall health.
- They can be incorporated into various biological compounds and metabolic pathways within organisms.
- Animals and humans require dietary intake of nutrients for optimal functioning and development.
- Common examples of end-products from nutrient metabolism include energy (ATP), amino acids, and fatty acids.
- Essential nutrients for animals include vitamins, minerals, essential amino acids, and fatty acids, vital for processes like cell function and tissue repair.
