Organic Molecules
Carbohydrates
Sugar and Starches
Contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen
-
-
-
-
Lipids
Fats and oils
Contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen
-
Cholesterol and Steroids are types of hormones that send messengers (chemicals to prepare the body for long-term changer)
-
Glycerol + Fatty Acids = Fat oils , Cholesterol + Fatty Acids = Steriods
Proteins
Nucleotides
Contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen
Make muscles, huesos, cartilage
-
-
-
-
Nucleic Acids
Amino Acids
Contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus

-
Four levels of Protein Structure
-
-
-
-
Carbon
Carbon forms covalent bonds with other carbon atoms and a very wide variety of atoms of other elements
-
Carbon-based molecular structure include chains, rings, lattices, and etc.
Dehydration Synthesis
-
Polymers - a substance that has molecular structure consisting entirely of a large number of similar units bonded together
Enzyme
Proteins that facilitate biochemical reactions. Reactions that would never take place normally are made possible and speeded up enormously by enzymes. Enzymes are called organic catalysts - they facilitate reactions without being charged by the reaction itself.
