1. MACROMOLECULES AKA ORGANIC MOLECULES copyright cmassengale1

2. Organic Compounds Although a cell is mostly water (70%), the rest of the cell consists mostly of carbon- based molecules. CompoundsCARBON ORGANIC Compounds that contain CARBON are called ORGANIC. Macromoleculesorganic molecules Macromolecules are large organic molecules. copyright cmassengale2 Macro = “giant” Macro = “giant”

3. Carbon (C) Carboncovalent bonds 4 Carbon can form covalent bonds with as many as 4 other atoms (elements). C, H, O, N, P, S Usually with C, H, O, N, P, S. 3 CH 4 (methane)

4. Carbon is versatile Carbon atoms can easily bond to other atoms in chains… in rings… to form large complex molecules. copyright cmassengale4

21. ANIMAL STARCH Glycogen = storage starch for an organisms supply of glucose Glygogen is highly branched, many strands Animals store glycogen a one – day supply of glycogen in the liver and muscles Chitin = starch that forms the exoskeleton of arthropods and insects Chitin also forms the cell walls of various fungi 21

23. Building Carbohydrates 1.NAME your molecule (i.e. Bisharose) 2.You will first work in pairs a)One partner will cut off JUST the “H” from one molecule b)One partner will cut off JUST the “OH” from another molecule c)Glue/tape the sugar molecules together d)Add water drop to show DEHYDRATION SYNTHESIS e)Glue the H and the OH you removed from your molecules to the water drop 3.CREATE a large polysaccharide by joining everyone’s molecules together.

24. Lipids copyright cmassengale24

26. Lipids Remember:“stores the most energy” Remember: “stores the most energy” Examples: Examples: 1. Fats 2. Phospholipids (found in cell membrane) 3. Oils 4. Waxes 4. Waxes 5. Steroid hormones 6. Triglycerides 26

27. Lipids Six functions of lipids: 1. Long term energy storage** **1. Long term energy storage** **2. Protection against heat loss (insulation)** 3.Protection against physical shock 4.Protection against water loss 5.Chemical messengers (hormones) 6.Major component of membranes (phospholipids) copyright cmassengale27

28. Lipids Triglycerides: c1 glycerol3 fatty acids Triglycerides: composed of 1 glycerol and 3 fatty acids. 28 H H-C----O H glycerol O C-CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 3 = fatty acids O C-CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 3 = O C-CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH =CH-CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 3 = Organic Alcohol (-OL ending)

29. Fatty Acids fatty acids There are two kinds of fatty acids you may see on food labels: 1.Saturated fatty acids: no double bonds (bad) 2.Unsaturated fatty acids: double bonds (good) copyright cmassengale29 O C-CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 3 = saturated O C-CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH =CH-CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 - CH 3 = unsaturated

30. Which is which? copyright cmassengale30

31. Polyunsaturated Fat Polyunsaturated fats have many double bonds – Each time a double bond is encountered, the molecule "Bends" slightly, resulting in a lower density of the lipid. This makes the molecule more likely to remain liquid at room or body temperatures. And thus, less likely to clog cardiac arteries. copyright cmassengale31

33. Building Lipids 1.Cut out three drops of water 2.Identify your Glycerol (pink) and your Fatty Acids (yellow) 3.JOIN your fatty acid molecules with your glycerol a)Cut off the JUST the OH from your glycerol (one at a time!) b)Cut off the H from one fatty acid c)Glue the glycerol and fatty acid together d)Add a water drop to show DEHYDRATION SYNTHESIS e)Glue the H and the OH you removed from your molecules to the water drop 4.CREATE a Triglyceride by adding the other two fatty acids to your glycerol molecule
