1. Do Now
Sit down and start to fill out the vocabulary organizer with any words that you know. This will be for homework.

2. Macromolecules

3. The Chemistry of Carbon
Carbon is the element of life
Able to bond to many different elements
Bonds to other carbons to form very long carbon chains

5. Macromolecules “Giant Molecules”
Macromolecules are made from thousands of smaller molecules combined

6. Macromolecules “Giant Molecules”
Macromolecules are made from thousands of smaller molecules combined
Monomer + monomer = polymer

7. Monomer- single molecule
Polymer- very large unit of molecules made by joining monomers together
“Poly” = many
“Mono” = single

8. Macromolecules are polymers!!!!
Monomer- single molecule
Polymer- very large unit of molecules made by joining monomers together
Macromolecules are polymers!!!!

11. Monomer Polymer

12. Monomer Polymer
Many joined together
Just one

13. 4 Main Macromolecules Carbohydrates Lipids Nucleic Acids Proteins
Each of these are polymers made from linking smaller units together
