Organic Compounds By: Tyauna Lewis
Nucleic Acids
Elements: Hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon and phosphorus
Provides energy and regulation of blood glucose
Example:DNA
Composed of monomers(5-carbon sugar, a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base.)
Proteins
Elements: Nitrogen, carbon,hydrogen, oxygen
Regulates the body tissue and organs
Example: eggs
Found throughout the body
Lipids
Elements: Carbon and hydrogen
Stores energy, signaling, and acting as structural components of cell membranes
Example: oil
Tend to be nonpolar and made up mostly of hydrocarbon chains
Carbohydrates
Elements: Carbon,hydrogen, and oxygen
Provides energy
Example: bread
The ratio for hydrogen--oxygen is 2:1
