CARBOHYDRATES . Give energy Polymers end in –OSE (polymers of sugars or saccharide) Plants store: STARCH Animals store: GLYCOGEN Structure material for plants CELLULOSE and CITIN Polar: dissolve in water. Carbohydrates gives energy and energy storage.

CARBOHYDRATES • Give energy • Polymers end in –OSE (polymers of sugars or saccharide) • Plants store: STARCH • Animals store: GLYCOGEN • Structure material for plants CELLULOSE and CITIN • Polar: dissolve in water
Monomers of carbohydrates is monosaccharide • Simplest form of a sugar (can not be broken down) • Most common is GLUCOSE which is the reactant of aerobic respiration product of photosynthesis
Carbohydrates are polymers are disaccharides and poly saccharide
Example of disaccharides • Sucrose-table sugar • Maltose-sugar in “malt” liquor or beer • Lactose-sugar in milk
Polysaccharides: long polymers of sugar bonded together (requires more energy to break the bonds • Starch: sugar in potatoes • Cellulose: sugar in plants(store energy) • Glycogen: stored sugar in animals
Glycogen in animal; Cellulose in plants Cellulose provides short term energy in plants Glycogen: stored sugar for energy in the liver, muscles and brain
Monomers of lipids: Fatty acids or glycerol –no polymers of lipids • Glycerol is the fat in soap (Glycerin) Can be vegetable glycerin or animal glycerin
Examples of Lipids: Steroids • STEROIDS not ANABOLIC steroids • SEX hormones as a metabolic lipid
Examples of LIPIDS:Cholestrol • Cholesterol is waxy substance in the cells of food. TOO MUCH CAUSES heart disease
Examples of LIPIDS: Cell Membrane • Phospholipids: the outer covering of a animal cell
Nucleic Acids are RNA and DNA; where genetic information is stored and carried
Monomers of DNA is nucleotide • DNA and RNA are made of repeating nucleotides • Nucleotide: sugar, phosphate, and base
Examples of DNA in prokaryotic (bacteria) and Eukaryotic (animal)
DNA has four bases Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine (uracil in RNA)
Proteins: provide structural support for animals and plants (CHONS)
Monomers of proteins: AMINO ACIDS • Provide excellent “food” for the brain; • 20 different biological amino acids (after translation in Protein synthesis)
Polymers of proteins are POLYOPEPTIDE BONDS • Many protein bonds together
Protein Transports: Hemoglobin to membrane channels (people with Sickle Cell have a hemoglobin mutation)
Human Body and mainly made up PROTEINS Example Antibodies: proteins produced in the body used to fight against diseases
Example of Proteins: Enzymes • Catalyst for a chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy • SPEEDS UP REACTIONS IN PROTEINS
