THE MOLECULES OF LIFE: 4. Nucleic Acids 1. Carbohydrates 3. Lipids 2. Proteins

1. Carbohydrates! Examples… Organic compounds composed of C, H, and O. Function = Provide your body with energy! Examples…

glucose (fuel for cells) C6H12O6 a. Monosaccharide Building blocks of carbohydrates (simple sugars) – contain C, H, & O in a 1:2:1 ratio. Most Common fructose (sweetest) Monomer galactose (milk) glucose (fuel for cells)

Fructose + glucose = sucrose (table sugar) b. Disaccharide When two monosaccharides combine in a condensation reaction to form a double sugar Fructose + glucose = sucrose (table sugar)

2-monosaccharides linked in a C-O-C bridge Condensation/ Dehydration: Link smaller molecules together to make a larger molecule 2-monosaccharides linked in a C-O-C bridge

Hydrolysis: Splitting of Molecules by The addition Of water – Essential Process for digestion Fructose

c. Polysaccharide Complex molecule composed of 3 or more monosaccharides 1) Glycogen consists of hundreds of glucose molecules! 2) STARCH...plant cell walls = starch Polymer

Function = Help build muscle mass! 2. Proteins! Polymer that is made up from 20 different monomers. Proteins are the primary component of numerous body tissues. Function = Help build muscle mass! Examples…

a. Amino Acids FUNCTION Building blocks of protein STRUCTURE Contains Functional Groups – Carboxyl & Amino GROUPS --COOH & --NH2

b. Enzymes FUNCTION ROLE Increase the rate of a chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy (amount of energy needed to start a rxn) ROLE Act as Catalysts – speeds up chemical reactions without being consumed in rxn.

Organic compounds composed of C, H, and O. 3. LIPIDs! Organic compounds composed of C, H, and O. Function = Build cell membranes! Examples…

Building blocks of lipids Contains Functional Groups – Carboxyl a. Fatty Acids FUNCTION Building blocks of lipids STRUCTURE Contains Functional Groups – Carboxyl GROUPS --COOH

Cholesterol, HGH, insulin, Vitamin D, etc. b. Steroids FUNCTION Genetic regulators; control the rate of synthesis of a particular protein STRUCTURE Carbon skeleton consisting of rings with various functional groups attached Examples Cholesterol, HGH, insulin, Vitamin D, etc.

Store & transfer important information for the cell! 4. Nucleic Acids! Large, complex organic molecules composed of 3 groups (Phosphate, sugar, and nitrogenous base) . Function = Store & transfer important information for the cell! Examples…

Examples a. DNA Contains info essential for cell activities b. RNA Stores and transfers info for making proteins
