I. Organic Chemistry - The element carbon is a component of almost all biological molecules.
3
Carbon Carbon compounds can be in the shape of straight chains, branched chains, and rings.
4
II. Macromolecules A. Polymers -
molecules made from repeating units of identical (or nearly identical) compounds linked together by covalent bonds.
5
II. Macromolecules P.C.F. NA. B. Macromolecules -
large molecules formed by joining smaller organic molecules together. P.C.F. NA.

Do Now 1. Organic chemistry revolves around the element: __________.
2. Polymers are made of smaller subunits called: __________. 3. Name the four macromolecules of life:
7
1. Carbohydrates Ratio of carbon : hydrogen : oxygen of 1:2:1 n(CH2O)
8
1. Carbohydrates a. Monosaccharide- n ranging from 3 to 7 (simple sugar) b. Disaccharide - Two monosaccharides joined together c. Polysaccharide- many monosaccharides joined together
9

10
Classify the following as mono, di, or poly – saccaride
1. C6H12O6 2. 3. C12H24O12 4.
11
Carbohydrates and the Body
a. Monosaccharides – glucose - blood sugar insulin response: as glucose increases, our body releases insulin to decrease blood sugar Diabetes- difficulty with glucose homeostasis
12
Carbohydrates and the Body
b. Disaccharides – sucrose - become monosaccharides quickly
13
Carbohydrates and the Body
c. Polysaccharides – Cellulose (fiber) - makes you regular, lowers cholesterol Glycogen- short term energy storage (in the liver) Starch – long term carbohydrate storage
14
Think-Pair-Share Explain the flow of glucose from your sandwich (mouth) to you cells. Use the following words in your description: Glucose Insulin Glycogen Liver Cells Energy
15
Sucrose vs. Sucralose
16
Do Now Poly, mono, or disaccharide? 1. 2. 3. C36H72O36 4. C4H8O8 5.
17
Objectives 1. SWBAT identify the three major types of macromolecules in our bodies. 2. SWBAT create a concept map. 3. SWBAT explain why our bodies need proteins, carbs, and fats.
18
2. Lipids Made mostly of C and H Hydrophobic Three types of Lipids:
1. Triglyceride 2. Steroid (hormones, cholesterol) 3. Phospholipid
19
a.Saturated vs. Unsaturated Fats Triglycerides
Only Single bonds between the carbons Solid at room temperature (typically) Unsaturated Fats- Double bonds between the carbons Liquid at room temperature (typically)
20
Saturated vs. Unsaturated Fats Triglyerides
21

23
Types of Triglycerides
Saturated fats Unsaturated fats structural differences all single bonds (one shared pair of electrons) some double bonds (2 shared pairs of electrons) state solid fats liquid fats source come from animals come from vegetables health Less healthy More healthy Purpose energy storage and insulation
24
So… people have a problem with….
Hydrogenated oils & trans fats What are they? Why do they have a problem?
25
b. Steroids: Cholesterol
HDL LDL name High density lipoproteins low density lipo proteins function transport cholesterol from the body to the liver for breakdown and disposal transport cholesterol from the liver to the body Health good cholesterol bad cholesterol Purpose strengthens cell membranes
26
c. Phospholipids Structure:
Phosphate, glycerol, and 2 fatty acid tails Uses: Make up the cell membrane
27
Do Now What are the differences between saturated and unsaturated fats.
28
3. Proteins (Polymers) a. Made of small carbon compounds called amino acids (monomers) Central Carbon
30
b. Atoms that make up Amino Acids:
carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, and sometimes sulfur. Amino acids are connected together through a PEPTIDE BOND.
31
Chapter 6 Chemistry in Biology
32
c. Proteins in the Body structural - enzymes –
hair, collagen, muscle etc enzymes – speed up chemical reactions
33
4. Nucleic Acids a. complex macromolecules that store and transmit genetic information. b. Nucleic acids are made of smaller repeating subunits called nucleotides c. composed of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, and hydrogen atoms. Example: DNA and RNA

38
What is the pH scale? The pH scale measures how acidic or basic a solution is.
39
Identifying Acids and Bases
Acids have a pH from 0-7 Lower pH value indicates a stronger acid. Bases have a pH from 7-14 Higher pH value indicates a stronger base.
40
Acids and Bases Acids- Releases hydrogen ions.
Bases- Releases hydroxide ions. pH- measure of concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution.
41
Characteristics Of Acids
Acids can be characterized by: A sour taste. It turns blue litmus paper red It tastes sour. Try drinking lemon juice (citric acid)
42
Characteristics of Bases
A Base is characterized by: A bitter taste. (Milk of Magnesia) It feels slippery. (Soapy Water) It turns Red Litmus Blue.
43
6.2 Chemical Reactions A chemical reaction -atoms or groups of atoms are reorganized into different substances. Chemical Reactions: Production of heat or light, Formation of a gas, liquid, or solid
44
Parts of a Reaction Reaction- Molecules breaking or coming together Reactants- What goes in the reaction Products- What comes out of the reaction Na+ + Cl- = NaCl
45
Think – Pair - Share + ATP (energy)
Glucose and oxygen react to form carbon dioxide and water. Identify: Products Reactants Is this a chemical equation? Why? + ATP (energy)
46
Energy in Reactions The activation energy - minimum amount of energy needed for reactants to turn into products
47
Types of Reactions Exothermic- released heat energy.
The energy of the product is lower than the energy of the reactants.
48
Types of Reactions Endothermic - absorbed heat energy.
The energy of the products is higher than the energy of the reactants.
49
Think – Pair - Share Determine whether or not the following are Exothermic or Endothermic reactions: (Neutron Partner) 1. Combustion reactions of fuels 2. melting ice cubes 3. Nuclear Bomb 4. a candle flame 5. cooking an egg
50
Enzymes: -Specialized proteins that act as “catalyst”
- Usually end in “ase” -Lower activation energy -Not consumed in the reaction Catalyst- speeds up a reaction Substrate
51
Objectives 1. SWBAT answer question on ions, compounds, molecules, and parts of the atom. 2. SWBAT review enzymes by completing a worksheet in partners and discussing answers on the board. 3. SWBAT compare and contrast heterogeneous and homogenous mixtures. 4. SWBAT discuss buffers and apply it to what they learned about acids and bases.
