Protons, Neutrons, Electrons...
Independent Variable
The factor that a scientist changes on purpose to see what happens as a result. (Can be a change in design, material, ect.) AKA- manipulated or responding variable
Electron
a subatomic particle that has a negative charge- in electron cloud ( 1st cloud has 2 electrons max.)
Neutron
a subatomic particle that has no charge- in nucleus
Diatomic Ions
are never found alone and they have unshared ions.
Proteins
Builds structures and tissues
Acid
Compounds that release Hydrogen ions (H+) and has a Ph below 7
Carbohydrates
Provide short term energy
Base
Releases hydroxide ions (OH-) and has a Ph above 7
Lipids
Serve as insulation for the body
Nucleic acids
Store and process genetic info.
Proton
A positively charged subatomic particle- in nucleus
HONC
Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Carbon
Dependent Variable
The variable that is the one scientists want to observe. It is the variable that may change in response to the one that was originally altered.
