Biological molecules

Understand the structure of a Carbohydrate, a Lipid, and a protein;

Explain the functions of Carbohydrates, Lipids, and proteins;

Discuss how to obtain these three biological molecules;

Discuss the dangers of ingesting too many Carbohydrates, lipids and proteins.

Lipid

Protein

Carbohydrate

Primery

Carbohydrates - the source of all energy available to us! contain only carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. some examples are:chocolate, Acai. Banana, Sandwich and mant others.

complex carbohydrates - Polysaccharides

simple carbohydrates

Monosaccharides - one saccharide = sugar

Disaccharides - two saccharides together = sucrose

Starch - also in plants, we can digest

Cellulose - in plants, we can't digest

Lipid

Store energy

Hormone production

lipids are rich in electrons and it contributes to the production of acetyl-CoA which makes it possible to store energy

Biological membranes

Separate the molecules who cant enter in the human body by creating a membrane composed of Phospholipids

Stereoid hormones

Those hormones are mostly derived from cholesterol and are structurally similar. one example is the tetosterone

unsaturated lipids - Ussualy liquid at room temperature with double bonds. Normally found in oils

saturated fats- ussualy solid at room temperature with single bonds

secondary

tertiay

quaterany

A unique order in witch amino acids are linked to form the protein

refers to Proteins linked together to form a 3d shape

refers to the comprehensive 3-D structure of the polypeptide chain of a protein.

structure of a protein macromolecule formed by interactions between multiple polypeptide chains

Carbohydrates

Energy Storage

Energy Production

Cellular respiration is the process by which energy is captured from glucose.

The structure of glycogen enables its rapid mobilization into free glucose to power cells.

The sugar molecule deoxyribose is used to build the backbone of DNA.

protein

Messenger

Structural component

Enzyme

Antibody

Transport/storage

Antibodies bind to specific foreign particles, such as viruses and bacteria, to help protect the body.

Messenger proteins, such as some types of hormones, transmit signals to coordinate biological processes between different cells, tissues, and organs.

These proteins provide structure and support for cells. On a larger scale, they also allow the body to move.

These proteins bind and carry atoms and small molecules within cells and throughout the body.

Enzymes carry out almost all of the thousands of chemical reactions that take place in cells. They also assist with the formation of new molecules by reading the genetic information stored in DNA.

Carbohydrats

Lipds

Proteins

Meat, eggs, plants

bread, plants

animal fats, plants fats

Carbohydrates

lipids

proteins

Weight gain,Dehydration,Constipation, Diarrhea, Kidney damage, Increased cancer risk, Heart disease, Calcium loss, dificulties to breath

Heart Disease, Cholesterol and Satured fat raise.

Weight Gain, Type 2 Diabetes, Unhealthy Fat, Thickened Arteries, Brain Fog

Carbs provide your body with energy

Most of the carbohydrates in the foods we eat are digested and broken down into glucose before entering the vains and blood stream

complex molecules that have many important roles in the human body. They do most of the work in cells and are needed for the structure, function, and regulation of the body tissues and organs.

The functions of lipids is basicly storing energy, signaling, and acting as structural components of cell membranes of plants, animals and humans
