• Rattlebox moths release a chemical that spiders don’t like
• This spider caught a rattlebox moth and then let it go

• Thomas Eisner pioneered chemical ecology
– the study of the chemical language of nature
• He studies how insects communicate via chemical messages

• Everything an organism is and does depends on chemistry
• Chemistry is in turn dependent on the arrangement of atoms in molecules
• In order to understand the whole, biologists study the parts (reductionism)
2.1 The emergence of biological function starts at the chemical level
ATOMS AND MOLECULES

• Molecules and ecosystems are at opposite ends of the biological hierarchy
– Each level of organization in the biological hierarchy builds on the one below it
– At each level, new properties emerge

• A chemical element is a substance that cannot be broken down to other substances by ordinary chemical means
• About 25 different chemical elements are essential to life
2.2 Life requires about 25 chemical elements

• Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen make up the bulk of living matter, but there are other elements necessary for life
Table 2.2

• Chemical elements combine in fixed ratios to form compounds
• Example: sodium + chlorine sodium chloride
2.3 Elements can combine to form compounds

• The smallest particle of an element is an atom
• Different elements have different types of atoms
2.4 Atoms consist of protons, neutrons, and electrons
![Page 11: Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Rattlebox moths release a chemical that spiders don’t like This spider caught.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070416/5697c0231a28abf838cd3cba/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

• Atoms of each element are distinguished by a specific number of protons
Table 2.4
– The number of neutrons may vary
– Variant forms of an element are called isotopes
– Some isotopes are radioactive
![Page 14: Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Rattlebox moths release a chemical that spiders don’t like This spider caught.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070416/5697c0231a28abf838cd3cba/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

• Radioactive isotopes can be useful tracers for studying biological processes
• PET scanners use radioactive isotopes to create anatomical images
2.5 Connection: Radioactive isotopes can help or harm us

• Electrons are arranged in shells
– The outermost shell determines the chemical properties of an atom
– In most atoms, a full outer shell holds eight electrons
2.6 Electron arrangement determines the chemical properties of an atom

• Atoms whose shells are not full tend to interact with other atoms and gain, lose, or share electrons

• When atoms gain or lose electrons, charged atoms called ions are created
– An electrical attraction between ions with opposite charges results in an ionic bond
2.7 Ionic bonds are attractions between ions of opposite charge

• Some atoms share outer shell electrons with other atoms, forming covalent bonds
– Atoms joined together by covalent bonds form molecules
2.8 Covalent bonds, the sharing of electrons, join atoms into molecules
