32. Carbohydrates Review Used for: Carbohydrates are the major source of energy for most living things and include sugars, like glucose and sucrose, and starches. –Starches are long chains of sugars. Plants and some animals use carbohydrates for structural purposes. –An example of this is cellulose, which is found in plant cell walls, and chitin found in the exoskeleton of arthropods. Made of: Carbohydrates are made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, with a 2:1 ratio of hydrogen to oxygen.

39. Lipids Review Used for: Lipids provide insulation, store energy, cushion internal organs, and are found in biological membranes. The waterproof, waxy surface of some leaves contains lipids. –Examples of lipids include fats and oils. Made of: Lipids are made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. The structural building block of a lipid is the fatty acid combined with glycerol (a type of alcohol).

41. Nucleic acids are complex macro- molecules that store genetic information in cells in the form of a code. 38

42. 39 Function: Stores and transmits genetic information Two TYPES of nucleic acids – 1. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) – double strand of genetic information 2. RNA (ribonucleic acid) – single strand copy of DNA used to build proteins NUCLEIC ACIDS C, H, O, N, P

43. Nucleotides (monomers) have 3 parts: 1.A phosphate group 2.A sugar 3.A base. 40 Polymers of nucleotides Stores and transmits genetic information

44. Nucleic Acids Review Used for: Nucleic acids contain all the information that an organism needs to live. Nucleic acids direct the construction of proteins. The genetic information an organism receives from its parents is in the form of nucleic acids. Made of: The two types of nucleic acids, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA), are composed of chains of nucleotides. Nucleotides consist of a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogen-containing base.

47. Proteins-Structure Elements: CHONSElements: CHONS Made of small units called Amino AcidsMade of small units called Amino Acids 43 Amino Acids

48. 44 Bonds that holds Amino Acids together is called a Peptide Bond.

50. Protein can be large complex molecules. 45 Function of a protein depends on shape and its ability to recognize and bind to some other molecule.

51. Denaturing Proteins pH, salt, temp, etc. are altered, protein may unravel and lose its conformation and no longer work. 46

52. Can have fatal consequences. Ex: Inherited disease, sickle cell anemia, results from a single incorrect amino acid at the 6th position of a protein chain out of 146. When the amino acid sequesnce is wrong: Sickle Cell Anemia: 47

53. Proteins Review Used for: Proteins include: enzymes, some hormones, antibodies, and various structural parts of organisms are proteins. –These protein molecules differ in the number, kinds, and sequence of amino acids they contain. Made of: Proteins are made up of chains of amino acids. The 20 amino acids can be combined to form a great variety of protein molecules in living things.

54. …are PROTEINS!!!!!! 48

55. Enzymes speed up chemical reaction. These reaction would take place anyway…enzymes just speed them up! 49 Enzymes are biological catalysts Enzymes are proteins

56. Examples of an Enzyme

58. Without an enzyme! With an enzyme! 50

59. How do ENZYMES work? 1.The enzyme attaches to one or more of the reactants in a reaction. 2.The reactants that bind to the enzyme are known as the substrates. 3.The part of the enzyme where the substrate attaches to the enzyme is called the active site. 4.The shape of the active site only fits the shape of the substrate, somewhat like a lock fits a key. In this way only the correct substrate binds to the enzyme. 51

60. 52 Active Site Animation

61. Reactants/ Substrates Enzyme Enzymes can only bind to certain substrates this is known as the Lock-and-Key Mechanism. When the reaction is over the Enzyme is left as it was. 53 Animation

62. Once the enzyme and substrate are together, the enzyme holds the substrate so the reaction can occur. Once the reaction is over, the enzyme unlocks the product and the enzyme can start a new reaction with an identical substrate. Enzymes are not permanently changed or used up in reactions 54 Animation

63. Reaction pathway without enzyme Activation energy without enzyme Activation energy with enzyme Reaction pathway with enzyme Reactants Products Effect of Enzymes Go to Section: Enzymes work by LOWERING the amount of energy required for the reaction to proceed. 55

64. How do you speed up enzymes? 1.Add more of the enzyme. Warm up the enzyme! Don’t warm it too much or it may denature and stop working. 56

65. change in the pH A change in the pH of the enzyme can cause a change in the shape of the active site, therefore changing the activity of the enzyme. 57 Animation

66. 53

67. Each Chemical reaction in your body is helped along by a different enzyme. Enzymes have 4 special features in common do not 1. They do not make processes happen that would not take place on their own. They just make the processes take place faster! 2. Enzymes are not permanently altered or used up in reactions. 3. The same enzyme works for the forward and reverse directions of a reaction. 4 Each enzyme is highly selective about its substrate. 54 Enzyme pH and Conc lab animation
