1 Macrom olecules

2 Macromolecular Structure Monomer Monomer  Single molecule used as building block  Assembles polymers via dehydration (condensation) COH H H HCOH H H H Dehydration 1.H and OH are removed 2.Monomers bond

3 Macromolecular Structure Polymer Polymer  Breaks down into smaller polymers or monomers via hydrolysis C OH H H HCOH H H H Hydrolysis 1.Molecules separate 2.Water lyses and occupies open bonds

4

5 Carbohydrates

6 Monosaccharides Carbohydrate monomers Carbohydrate monomers (CH 2 O) n (CH 2 O) n

7 Polysaccharides Monosaccharide condensation via glycosidic linkage Monosaccharide condensation via glycosidic linkage Identity depends on… Identity depends on…  Monomers and glycosidic linkage angle (3-D shape)

8 Polysaccharides

9 Polysaccharides Starch Starch Glycogen Glycogen Cellulose Cellulose Chitin Chitin

10 Lipids

11 Fatty Acids Saturated Saturated  Maximum H’s  No C=C bonds Unsaturated Unsaturated  Less than maximum H’s  C=C bonds

12 Triglycerides (triacylgycerols) Glycerol + 3 Fatty acids Glycerol + 3 Fatty acidsCarboxyl Hydroxyl

13 Triglycerides (and variants) (triacylgycerols) Cell membranes Cell membranes Oils used in plant seeds Oils used in plant seeds Adipose tissue Adipose tissue
