Alpha Gluose ( isomer of beta)

Undergoes

Condensation Reaction

bings mono + mono = di by

Function

Plants

Frucotse

Function

Disaccharides

madeup two monosaccharides

formed by a

Covalent bond

with a

Glycosidic Linkage

Examples

for

Animals

Lactose

Breaks

into

Gluose + Galactose

by the lactase enzyme

has a alpha (1-4) linkage

Maltose

Breaks

into

Glucose + Glucose

by the lactase maltase

has a beta ( 1-4) linkage

Plants

Sucrose

Breaks

into

Glucose + Galactose

by the lactase sucrase

has an alpha(1-4) linakge

Polysaccharides

made up of many monosaccharides formed by a

Covalent bond

with a

Glycosidic linkage

Function

used for

Storage

the poly involves is

Starch

used in plants

provides a structural unit for plants

the poly involved is

Cellulose

used in plants

provides sugar for

Energy

is stored in

Glycogen

used in animals

used for short term

BY: LUL ZERGABER

Lipids

Function

provides

Long term energy

Storage molecules in the body

In charge of

Digestion

Insulation

Fat soluble vitamins

Food Storage

Chemical Signalling

Structural Function

Consist of

Carbon

and hydrogen =

Bonds

results in being

Insoluble in H20

which means its

Hydrophobic

Hydrogen

Oxygen

Storage

in

Plants

are

Oils

Animals

are

Fats

Forms

Trigylceride

Most common form of lipids

Composed of a Glycerol + 3

Fatty Acids

Saturated

Can result in situated health problems

are bonded by a

Ester Bond

so it will have a straight chain

are solids at room temperature

Unsaturated

are bonded by a

Double Bond

so it will have kinks

are liquids at room temperature

forms fats in

Adipose cells

form together through an

Esterficaton Reaction

the bond formed is an

Ester Linkage

is the monomer of lipids

Waxes

Contain

long -chain fatty acids that are linked to alchols or carbon rings

form molecules

Cutin

that

helps pants conserve water and resist dsease

forms a water resistant coating on

leaves

fruits

stems

Steriods

contain

Cholestral

maintains fluidity in lipid bilayer

are incorperated into vitamins and bile

are part of sex hormones

have harmful

Effects

Acne

Bad breath

Kidney Disease

Phosphalipids

composed of a

Glycerol molecule

and is attached to

2 non polar fatty acids (tail)

highly polar phophate group (head)

in H20 they two possible arrangments

Phospahlipid bilayer

Ring

Hydrogented fats

Do not exist in nature

processed naturally from fats and oils by convertingcis to trans form

Is done by bubbling hydrogen gas into oil at a high temperture

Trans Fats

Are creted through hydrogenation. This process helps the shelf life and taste of the product

After hydrogenation,, they are now partially hydrogenated

Proteins

Monomer

is

Amino Acids

Joined by

Dehydration Synthesis

Removes the H20

a covalent bond

100-200 make

Protein Polymer Chains

change in

Sequence

causes blood clots

change in shape

possible sickle cell anemia

response to physical and chemical

Conditions

alter in PH levels

Temperature

Denaturing

meaning breaking down

Salt concentration

there are 20 different amino acids

Structure

Depicts its

Function

which is

Transport Molecules

they facilitate diffusion

Storage

for energy

Enzymes

accelerate chemical reactions

Defense against foreign substances

immunoglobins

Movement

cells traveelling through the flagells or cillia

Hormones

some carry chemical signalling

Structural support

give it shape

Contains

A Hydrogen and R group

Amino Group

Carbxylic Acid

Central Carbon

Levels

Primary

are joined by a peptide bond

Secondary

polypeptide forms pleated sheet and are held by hydrgoen bonds

Tertiary

side chains form to make it 3D so ti determines a variety of R groups

Quatnary

take on a rounded shape and not all proteins have this structure

Nucleic Acids

Monomer

Nucleotide

consists of

A Phosphate group

Sugar w/ 5 carbons

Nitrogen containing bade

Types

Pyrimidines

have single six-membered ring

Cytosine, Thymine and Uracil

Purines

have a six-membered ring jpined to a five membered ring

Adenine and Guanine

vs.

Nucleotideds

generally lack phosphate group

one or more phosphate groups covantly bonded to creates a

one of the 4 DNA bases covalently attached to a sugar

Types

DNA

functions to

provide direction for own replication

Directs RNA synthesis (through RNA)

Has a role of protein expression, Inhertance, and Evolutions

Pairings

3 H bonds for between Guanine and Cytosine

they are complementary strands

2 H bonds form between Adenine and Thymine

H bonds not covalent bonds because they need to be able to replicate itslef
