BIOMOLECULES The digestive process is occurring. In order for organisms to live and function they require energy. Eating and digesting food provides the body with chemical energy in the form of ATP. ALL LIVING ORGANISM CONTAIN THE ELEMENT CARBON!!

Biomolecules You are what you eat!

CARBOHYDRATES Carbohydrates Pasta Bread Sweets Potatoes Corn

Carbohydrates aka… Sugar Starch Carbs

How does our body break down this bread?

Breaks down into microscopic molecules Loaf of bread Bread crumbs Polysaccharide Monosaccharide Disaccharide

Structure Monomer: Glucose (monosaccharide) Monosaccharide One Sugar

Structure Di saccharide Two Sugar

Structure Polysaccharide Many Sugar

Function Provide QUICK energy to the body!

LIPIDS

Breaks down into microscopic molecules Fats, oils, waxes, steroids

LOOK FOR THE “E” Monomer: 3 fatty acids + glycerol

Function Made mainly of carbon and hydrogen (few oxygen) Fat best method of long-term energy storage. forms cell membranes Insulation (layers of fat to help the body stay warm. Example: Whale’s Blubber)

Challenge: Describe what you see (at least 3 sentences) This is an amino acid. It is the monomer for a protein. It contains C, H, O and N. It has 3 groups: an amino group, an R-group, and a carboxyl group. The R-group is considered a variant group because it changes.

Proteins aka…. Whey Protein Meat Polypeptide Peanut butter

Breaks down into microscopic molecules Polypeptide Meat Amino Acid Monomer: amino acid Polymer: polypeptide

Monomer: Amino Acids Contains C, H, O, N 20 types Has both hydrophobic & hydrophylic ends Differ in R-group R-group can be acidic, basic or neutral Makes polypeptide then makes proteins

Polymer: Polypeptide (peptide means bond) Formed by dehydration synthesis Sequence determined by DNA 3-D and folds to take up less space

Function of Proteins Provides us with building blocks for life! Also regulate most functions in a cell. Glycoproteins (antigens) Combines w/DNA to form chromosomes Turns genes on and off Antibodies (fights disease)

Function of Proteins Provides structure & strength for the body Transports molecules in & out cells Hemoglobin (transports O2) Enzymes (speeds up reactions)- has –ase suffix Acts as hormones (insulin)- many proteins have suffix of -in

Bellringer: Describe in detail what you see in the diagram Bellringer: Describe in detail what you see in the diagram. (minimum 3 sentences) This is a picture of ATP. ATP is one type of polymer of a nucleic acid. It is made of adenine, sugar, and 3 phosphate groups.

Nucleic Acids Contains C, H, O, N, P Monomer: NUCLEOTIDES Nucleotides consist of 3 parts: 1. 5-Carbon Sugar 2. Phosphate Group 3. Nitrogenous Base

Nucleotide: Nitrogen Bases 5 types Cytosine Guanine Adenine Thymine (in DNA only) Uracil (in RNA only) Purines or pyrimidines In DNA: In RNA: C-G C-G A-T A-U

Nucleotides: 5-carbon sugar and phosphate group 2 types of sugars Ribose (in RNA only) Deoxyribose (in DNA only) Phosphate group Contains phosphorus & oxygen Polymer: polynucleotide deoxyribose ribose

Function Polypeptide: DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) contains the genetic code stores & transmit heredity/genetic information found in the nucleus (mitochondria) Double stranded (double helix)

Function Polypeptide: RNA (ribonucleic acid) Carries info from DNA to cell Helps in protein synthesis found in ribosomes & nucleoli Single stranded

Polypeptide: ATP Contains adenine, ribose sugar, 3 phosphates Stores and releases energy

Which biomolecule has the most energy!?

C-H bonds Count the number of C-H bonds in your monosaccharide picture. Count the number of C-H bonds in your saturated or unsaturated bond picture Which biomolecule (carbs or fats) have more C-H bonds?

The number of C-H bonds = the amount of energy The more C-H bonds a biomolecule has, the more energy it has! Fats have the most energy because they have the most C-H bonds!
