Macromolecules
Carbohydrates
polymers = polysacharides (starch, cellulose, glycogen)
monomers = monosacharides (glucose, fructose)
-
fast source of energy, cell structure
found in bread, vegetables, sugar
-
-
Proteins
examples
antibodies, enzymes, keratin
-
purpose
slows down sugar absorption to maintain energy longer. Can also be broken down and turned into glucose (carbs) later
uses
building and repairing body (esp.muscles), immune response (antigens and antibodies), transport, enzymes regulation
-
Nucleic Acids
stores the genetic information (DNA, RNA)
