Chemistry of Life:
Carbohydrates (polymer)
Carbohydrate Structure
Monosaccharides (monomers)
Disaccharides Disaccharides are double sugars made of two monosaccharides Example: Sucrose Double Ring Structures
Polysaccharides (polymer) Chains of three or more monosaccharides Store house for energy Made of hundreds of glucose molecules Cellulose is a plant molecule and can’t be broken down in humans Starch (plants) Glycogen (animals)
Activity: Write on Bottom of Do Now How many straight chain sugars do you have in your set? Based on what you know so far, which of the CHNOPS elements are contained in sugars? How many single ring monosaccharides are in your molecule set? How many disaccharides are in your molecule set? One of the disaccharides is common table sugar. Draw its structure.
