B1.1 Carbohydrates and lipids
organic compound
carbon
Carbon atoms can form 4 covalent bonds
either SINGLE or one double and 2 single
in living things
TYPES OF CARBON COMPOUND
CARBOHYDRATES
LIPIDS
NUCLEIC ACIDS
PROTEIN
CARBOHYDRATES
COH--> Carbon, oxygen and hydrogen
ENERGY SOURCE
CELL RECOGNITION (GLYCOPROTEINS)
STRUCTURE CELLULOSE
insoluble
monosaccharides
LIPIDS
fatty acids + monoglycerides
MONOMERS
PROTEINS
amino acids
then formed into POLYPEPTIDES
NUCLEIC ACIDS
nucleotides
MONOSACCHARIDES
POLYMERS
LIPIDS
energy storage + thermal insulation
SATURATED
MONOUNSATURATED
POLYUNSATURATED
hydrophobic
CONDENSATION VS. HYDROLYSIS
CONDENSATION
links MONOMERS together
removes -OH and a H (so water)
creates MACROmolecules
HYDROLYSIS
deconstructs MACROmolecules
adds water
used in DIGESTION
MACRO: polysaccharides, nucleic acids, polypetides
