IPC 11/17/16
In your IAN Notebook, answer the following questions in complete sentences:
What is the basic single unit of any biomolecule called?
If two monosaccharides are combined into one molecule, what is the name of that molecule?
A molecule with 3 or more units combined together is called a _____________________.
What is the process molecules go through to make bigger molecules?
What is the byproduct of this process?
What is the process needed to break a large molecule back down into its single units?
What is needed to complete this process?

2. Sugar, Bread, Potatoes, nom nom….
Carbohydrates
Sugar, Bread, Potatoes, nom nom….

3. Carbohydrates Carbohydrates are the most abundant of the
4 types of biomolecules.
What are the 4 types of biomolecules?
Carbohydrates
Lipids
Proteins
Nucleic Acids

4. Monosaccharide + Monosaccharide = Polysaccharide (Carbohydrate)
Monomers
What are the monomers for Carbohydrates?
Monosaccharides (simple sugars)
How are the monosaccharides combined into carbohydrates?
Dehydration Synthesis - removing 1 water molecule to build a larger sugar molecule.
Monomer + Monomer = Polymer
Monosaccharide + Monosaccharide = Polysaccharide (Carbohydrate)

5. Structure
Carbohydrates are made up of Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen. CHO Glucose: C6H12O6

6. Function
Main source of energy for plants and animals (including people)
Carbohydrates act as a FAST source of energy, but can also be stored for later use.
Carbohydrates are easy for the body to break down which is why they are a FAST source of energy

7. Production Carbohydrates are produced by plants using what process?
Photosynthesis!
Where in the plant
cell does this occur?
Chloroplasts!
DRAW the Chloroplast in
your notes!

8. Examples - Monosaccharides
Write the name of each monosaccharide on the blank line provided, and DRAW the structure above it’s name!

9. Examples - Disaccharides

10. Examples
Chitin- found in the shell of bugs, and the cell walls of fungi Cellulose- found in the cell wall of plant cells Glycogen- how animals (like people) store carbohydrates to be used later Starch- how plants store carbohydrates

11. BUILD A POLYSACCHARIDE!
Using the GLUCOSE models you picked up, create a DISACCHARIDE and show the WATER MOLECULE come out
You can color the MONOSACCHARIDE green, and the WATER blue.
What process are you showing in this activity?
Dehydration Synthesis
