Macromolecues

protein

Monomer is amino acid

Structure folds and is 3D shapes

This makes it so they do different things

Secondary structures are alpha helix and pleated sheet.

Primary structure is amino acids

Hair

Skin

Nails

Muscle

Enzymes

Immune system

Movement

Hormones

Proteins are made up of carbons, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen.

Nucleic acids

Are what genes are made of

Nucleotide chain form

DNA

RNA

Information (in general)

Stored information

Monomer is nucleotides.

Nucleic acids are mad up of a base, a pentose sugar, and a phosphate group.

Carbohydrates

Cellulose(a kind of carb) Herbivores can digest Carnivores cannot.

Classified by carbon number

Always in 1:2:1 ratio.

Cellulose

Glucose

Starches

Sugars

Structure

Energy Storage

Quick energy

Monomer is monosaccharides.

Carbohydrates are made up of carbons, hydrogen, and oxygen.

Lipids

Characteristics

Structure is glycerol and 2 fatty acid tails

Non-Polar

Fats can be Saturated or unsaturated fats

Unsaturated fats are carbon carbon bonds so they create non-straight lines

Saturated are double bonds this creates straight lines

Examples

Waxes

Steriods

Oils

Fats

Functions

Insulates

Cusions

Energy storage

Monomer is triglycerides.

Lipids are made up of carbons, hydrogen, and oxygen.
