Organic Compounds found in all living organisms:
REVIEW: What does it mean to be organic? -Contains Carbon and Hydrogen -Can decompose
2
Organic Compounds found in living organisms:
1. Carbohydrates (C,H,O) -provide quick energy 2. Proteins (C,H,O,N,S) -build, maintain and repair our bodies. 3. Lipids (C,H,O) -stored energy 4. Nucleic Acid (C,H,O,N,P) - stores and transmits our genetic code.
3
CHNOPS 98% of the body is made up of: Sulfur Phosphorus Oxygen 1%
Nitrogen Carbon Hydrogen CHNOPS 1% 63% 5% 19% 9%
4
Remaining 2% are “Trace Elements”:
-occur in very small amounts which vary person to person based on the food they eat. Calcium…Ca Iron….Fe Chlorine…Cl Potassium…K Magnesium…Mg Sodium……Na
5
Carbon: The molecule of life
Life/all organic material is based on carbon -carbon is a central element or backbone of all organic compounds Carbon is a such a versatile element because it can form covalent bonds Sharing of electrons Carbon skeleton can vary in length, branching, and even form ring structures
6
Mass number: #P + # N Atomic number # P Atomic weight
7
Elements differ in the number of covalent bonds they can form:
Hydrogen: it can form just one covalent bond Oxygen: it can form up to two covalent bonds
8
One carbon atom can bond covalently to four other molecules.
Carbon forms more types of compounds than any other element.
9
Carbon can form single, double and even triple bonds:
Single bond Double bond Triple bond
10
Carbon can form macromolecules
What is a macromolecule? In the shape of: A large molecule Carbon RINGS Like in carbohydrates
11
Carbon CHAINS Like in lipids/fats
13
Biochemical Pathway of Carbon:
CO2 CO2 O2 Cellular Respiration Photosynthesis
14
Photosynthesis Cellular Respiration Biochemical Pathway of Carbon:
6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2 Cellular Respiration
15
YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT…….
16
Carbohydrates: Protein: Lipids: Provides immediate or quick energy.
Digested in mouth and small intestines Provides materials to build, maintain and repair cells/tissues. Digested in stomach and small intestines Provides long term/stored energy. Digested in the small intestines

Carbon Soufflé Why do we eat carbs? For energy
The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) reports that the average American consumes anywhere between 150 to 170 pounds of refined sugars in one year! Why do we eat carbs? For energy Number one most consumed carb is? table sugar or sucrose Chemical formula for sucrose is: C12H22O11
19
We will take sucrose and add the dehydration agent Sulfuric Acid.
C12H22O11 12 C H2O + NRG Carbon Souffle We will take sucrose and add the dehydration agent Sulfuric Acid. Sulfuric Acid will remove all of the water from the sucrose and the only thing left will be??? CARBON
20
Carbohydrates/ simple and complex sugars: Roles:
1. Provide quick energy. Carbs are digested into glucose which cells use during cell respiration. 2. Play a structural role in plants, bacteria and some animals. 3. Component of all cell membranes. Used to reattach the P on to ADP to make ATP
21
Carbohydrates are made up of:
Carbon Hydrogen Oxygen In a 1:2:1 ratio
22
S S Monomer: basic building block of an organic molecule
Ex: monosaccharide Polymer: a macromolecule made up of many monomers bonded together. Ex: polysaccharide S S
23
Three types of Carbs: (based on # of molecules bonded together)
Monosaccharides: -mono means……… -1 -is made up of one single sugar molecule Chemical formula (1:2:1 ratio): C6H___O___ C6H12O6 S
24
Provides us with: (0 to 20 min) -simplest form of a sugar
- instant energy (0 to 20 min) -simplest form of a sugar -does not need to be digested -just needs to be absorbed into our blood.
26
3 Types of Monosaccharides:
-all are isomers -iso means……………. -equal -have the same chemical formulas of C6H12O6 but they have a slightly different structural formula/shapes.
27
1. Glucose -made by plants during photosynthesis
-found in all green plant products.
28
2. Fructose -Found in all fruits.
29
3. Galactose -Found in dairy products
30
Quick Review S Carbs provide us with quick energy.
Monosaccharides are made up of one single sugar molecule. Monosaccharides are the MONOMERS/building blocks of all carbohydrates Monosaccharides are in their simplest form….does not need to be digested. S
31
2nd type of carbohydrate:
Disaccharides: Di means….. 2 It is made up of two monosaccharides bonded together. S
32
+ S S S C6H12O6 C6H12O6 C12H24O12 Chemical Formula: H2O C12H22O11
33
S S Disaccharides provide us with: -energy within approx. 2
hours after eating them. -this is because they must be digested down into their simplest form ……monosaccharides. S S H2O
34
3 Types of Disaccharides:
Sucrose -2 monos from plants bonded together -Commonly known as table sugar -Comes from sugar cane (a green plant) Fructose Glucose
35
-2 monos from plants bonded together
2. Maltose -2 monos from plants bonded together - Malt grain….used to make beer and other alcohols. Glucose
36
-2 monos bonded together -found in dairy products Did you know?????
3. Lactose -2 monos bonded together -found in dairy products Did you know????? -Lactose needs to be digested with the enzyme lactase. Some people do not have this enzyme so they are “lactose intolerant”. Glucose Galactose
37
Dehydration Synthesis: -dehydrate…remove water -synthesis….to make
-to make by removing water -what occurs when two monos bond together to create a disaccharide by removing one water molecule.
38
Dehydration Synthesis
H2O Glucose Galactose
39
Hydrolysis: -hydro…..water -lysis…… to break open
Hydrolysis occurs when we add water to a disaccharide when we need to break it down or digest it.
40
Hydrolysis Glucose Galactose H2O
41
3rd type of Carb S Polysaccharides: -poly means….. many
- It when many ( up to 4000) monosaccharides bonded together S
42
Must be digested. Takes up to 24 hours to be totally digested. Each bond between the monos must be broken. Made up of 3 to 4000 monos so there is not one common chemical formula.
43
3 Types of Polysaccharides:
Starch -how plants store excess glucose -made up of glucose molecules bonded together in a long chain.
44
How animals store excess glucose.
Glycogen How animals store excess glucose. When we eat excess carbs our liver converts them into glycogen to be stored. If we still do not use it then the glycogen is converted into fat for long term storage.
45
-used by plants for structure and support.
3. Cellulose -used by plants for structure and support. -makes up the cell wall of plant cells -humans can not digest cellulose-pass it out as the “bulk” of our feces.
46
-another polysaccharide
Chitin -another polysaccharide -is the material which makes up the outer shell of crabs and insects.
