1. What is molecular biology?
2. What discovery revolutionized the study of molecular biology?
3. What is vitalism?
4. Why was the synthesis of urea significant to the idea of vitalism?
5. What is special about carbon compounds and their bonding?
6. List the 4 types of carbon compounds that we will be studying and give a brief description of each.
7. Define metabolism.
8. Define anabolism and catabolism and give several examples of each that occur in our bodies.

When finished, read 2.2 about the amazing properties of water!!!
