Proteins (mine)
-
-
Protein is a macromolecule that is essential for building up muscle mass. Most of the Human body is also made of protein like hair, nails, tissues, enzymes, and most importantly DNA.
Peptide bonding is a chemical bond formed between two molecules when the carboxyl group of one molecule reacts with the amino group of the other molecule, releasing a molecule of water
Describe the sub units
The R group is a side chain specific to each amino acid that confers particular chemical properties to that amino acid.
A amino group is a group that consists of nitrogen atoms attached by 3 single bonds to hydrogen atoms.
Carboxyl groups are weak acids, dissociating partially to release hydrogen ions.

Levels of organization
-
Protein secondary structure refers to regular, repeated patterns of folding of the protein backbone. The two most common folding patterns are the alpha helix and the beta sheet.
-
The quaternary structure describes the way in which the different subunits are packed together to form the overall structure of the protein
Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are mostly made of Carbon, Hydrogen, and oxygen.
-
Examples of Carbohydrates are sugar, milk, honey, bread, and pasta.
The monomers of carbohydrates are called monosaccharides, and the polymers are called polysaccharides.
