Unsaturated fats come from plant sources and are liquid at room temperature. These fats have one or more double covalent bonds that are found within the carbon chain. These molecules do NOT have hydrogen atoms at every position along the carbon chain.
Monounsaturated Fats: one double bond
Polyunsaturated Fats: more than one double bond
Unsaturated Fatty Acids Isomers
Trans Isomers ( opposite side) AKA Transfats: the presence of a double bond with hydrogens on opposite sides.
Cis Isomers (same side): the presence of a double bond in cis causes the molecule to have a kink compared to the trans fatty acid.
Saturated fats are solid at room temperature. There are no double covalent bonds between carbons because these molecules are saturated with hydrogen atoms at every position. They are also associated with an increase in cardiovascular disease.
Water-loving molecules exclude hydrophobic molecules such as lipids, which means that hydrophobic molecules stick together when in an aqueous environment. Amphiphilic molecules take advantage of the environment to surround hydrophobic molecules yet still flow with the surrounding water.
Water is extremely vital when it comes to forming and breaking ester bonds. These are seen in Lipids, carbohydrates, proteins, DNA, and basically everything.
Water has strong intermolecular bonds as a result of bring so polar. This allows for a high heat of vaporization and high specific heat. In turn, this helps to regulate temperatures so biology can exist the way it does.
Water is the universal solvent because of its strong polarity and its relatively low molecular weight. Liquid water is everywhere.
Ion-dipole (4)
The strongest type of intermolecular bond. Seen commonly in dissolved solutions, such as salt water. Thus, salt water is more difficult to freeze and boil. This bond is between a fully charged ion and a partially charged side of a molecule. For instance, the negative Cl ion with the positive H´s in salt water.
Seen in the tiertiary structure of protiens.
Dipole-dipole (2)
Covalently bonded molecules that are polar have a dipole movement. The partially negative side of one molecule will bond with the partially positive side of another molecule. Stronger than london dispersion, but weaker than Ion-dipole.
Hydrogen bond (3)
A type of dipole-dipole where a hydrogen is covalently bonded to a N, O, or F. This hydrogen is then intermolecularly bonded to any polar N, O, or F element of another molecule
Hydrogen bonds are incredibly important. They hold together proteins, DNA, enable water to be water, create functional groups, and regulate temperatures. They are a stronger form of dipole-dipole
London Dispersion (1)
Every molecule has a set number of electrons. These electrons move randomly in an electron cloud. An instantaneous dipole movement occurs when electrons gather on one side of the molecule or atom. These instant dipole movements allow for instantaneous bonds. This bond is ALWAYS present but is the weakest out of the bonds listed. Most prominent between nonpolar molecules. Increases with surface area and amount of electrons in a molecule.
Between two fully charged ions. Giving and receiving electrons. Stronger as the charges are full.
Between two atoms. Electrons are shared bwteen atoms. Atoms with a higher electronegativity will pull electrons more therefore creating a polar molecule. When a molecule shares electrons equally, it is known as a nonpolar molecule.
Covalent bonds are seen in biology as glycosidic, peptide, ester, phosphodiester, disulfide bridge bonds.

Facultative Anaerobes
Can survive without O2 by fermentation
Can survive with O2
Obligate Anaerobes
Energy source is fermentation
The chemical breakdown of a substance by bacteria, yeasts, or other microorganisms. They get their energy by breaking down something else, which in this case is oxygen gas. It needs to break down oxygen gas to feed itself, that's the only way it knows how to survive or CAN survive.
Cannot survive with O2, needs to not have it, O2 is toxic to it.

Stanley-Millers Hypothesis/experiment
Based on the hypothesis that early life elements were being spouted from underwater volcanoes
The elements then became chemical compounds through chemical evolution
The compounds were put into a boiling water chamber to express the hot waters due to the volcanoes in early earth.
