1 BIOCHEMISTRY Part II

2 CARBOHYDRATES  Monomer = monosaccharide (simple sugar)  Made of C, H, and O and easily recognized by ring structure but no N like in DNA!!

3 CARBOHYDRATES MACROMOLECULES  2 monosaccharides = disaccharide  3 or more monosaccharides = polysaccharide such as starch or cellulose Disaccharide 

4 3. Carbohydrates3. Carbohydrates  Function: broken down to provide quick energy for cells  Example: sugars and starches (pastas, breads, candy etc)

5 4. Lipids4. Lipids  Monomer: Fatty Acids  Functions  Store Energy  Make up cell membranes  Used to make hormones

6 4. Lipids4. Lipids  Made up of C, H, O  Long and non polar  Hydrophobic: does not dissolve in water  Examples: fats, oils, phospholipids, steroids, waxes, and pigments  found in mayonnaise, ice cream, hot cheetos etc
