1. Biomolecules Molecules of Life
Each biomolecule is a MACROmolecule =LARGE molecule
Made of subunits (building blocks)
Organic Chemistry: Carbon Chemistry

7. Carbohydrates
Made of Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen (C,H,O) Sugars (end in “-ose”) and Starches Subunits aka monomers are monosaccharides (simple sugar) Monosaccharide examples: Glucose and Fructose Starches are polysaccharides (polymer)

8. Carbohydrates
Provide quick ENERGY 4 Cal/g Cell Receptors Monosaccharide  (draw this) Glucose C6H12O6

9. Simple Sugars: Carbohydrates
Disaccharides
“Two” “Sugars”

10. Polysaccharides
Complex sugars : 1,000’s of glucoses linked Cellulose : Plants Glycogen: Animals Starches: plant storage (like potato)

11. Lipids : Fats, Oils
Made of C,H,O Saturated and Unsaturated Subunits: Glycerol + fatty acids Secondary (Storage) Source of Energy Provide insulation & protection & hormones Major Component of cell membranes

12. Unsaturated C-C double bonds Liquid @room temp. Saturated
Lipids:Fats
Unsaturated
C-C double bonds
temp.
Saturated
C-C single bonds
room temp.

13. Steroids are Lipids
Some Hormones: Testosterone, Estrogen, Cortisone

14. Lipids aka Fats

15. Proteins
Made of C, H, O, N Monomers/subunits :amino acids Linked by PEPTIDE BOND Structural Components: Hair, Nails, Muscles Functions : enzymes, structures in cell walls, assist with metabolism and antibodies Enzymes: Help with chemical reaction in the cells and body (organic catalyst) end in “ase” Hemoglobin: protein in RBC carries O2

16. Proteins *Made from Amino acids *20 different Types (R Group)
*Recognize
by the N

17. Proteins

18. Proteins

19. Nucleic Acids
Made of C, H, O, N, P Subunits/Monomers: nucleotides Two Types: DNA & RNA Carry Genetic Code DNA : Double helix RNA: single stranded

20. Nucleic Acids
Nucleotides: sugar, phosphate & nitrogen base
