It structure and reactivity is responsible for the behavior of proteins. Other substances dissolved in it are also important for the function of the cell.

Tautomerism

occurs in the absence of free oxygen either by loss of H or loss of electrons (gain in valence)

It has contributed to our understanding of disease and their treatment

They provide many chemical elements in intra and extra cellular fluids such as the lymph, blood and interstitial fluids

substances which when dissolve in water dissociates into charged particles called "ions"

It helps to Investigate the chemical reactions that takes place within plants, animals and microorganisms

Elements comprising living matter

the major component of the cell an inert filler

this is the union of substance with one or more molecules of water forming an unstable substance water complex which is subsequently fragmented. Through hydrolysis large molecules are broken down in to smaller and simpler form.

Negatively charged ions

Function of electrolytes in our body

Methods of material transfer

Reactions where simple molecules unite with one another to form a compound. This is the basis of formation of complex substances in the body, such as glycogen, and tissue proteins

Non covalent bond

Because H+ is a single proton with one positive charge an acid is called a" proton donor"

Forces occurs between molecules that are dipole with the partial positive side of one molecule attracting the partial negative of one molecule
