Structure
Amino Acid(Monomer)
Carboxyl Group +
-((Peptide bond covalent bond))-
Amino Group of the other amino acid =
Polypeptide(Polymer)

Lipids
Functions
Long term energy storage, protection against physical shock/water-heat loss,hormones,major component of cell membrane
Types
Phospholipids
AMPHIPATHIC: has both hydrophobic(fatty acid tails) and hydrophilic(glycerol and negatively charged phosphate group) regions
-
Fats
Saturated
There is no double bond between the carbons. All Carbn are linked with Hydrogen , solid at room temp./include most animal fats , To convert it to unsaturated = remove hydrogen
Unsaturated
There is one or more double bonds between carbons in their fatty acids allows for “kinks” in the tails , liquid at room temp./include most plant fats , To convert it to saturated = Hydrogenation

Polymers principles
a long molecule consists of a chain of similar building molecules (monomers) covalently bonded together.
-connection : covalent bond , dehydration reaction , requires energy and enzymes
-disassembled : hydration=hydrolysis , dominate the digestive process, guided by specific enzymes
