Organic Molecules

Organic Compounds  Contain C and H  Often form long chains of carbon atoms linked by covalent bonds  Macromolecules = large organic molecules abundant in living organisms Carbohydrates Lipids Proteins Nucleic Acids Adenosine triphospate (ATP)

Who studies macromolecules?  Biochemistry is the study of the chemical interactions of living things

Elements in Living Organisms Hydrogen (H) Oxygen (O) Carbon (C) Nitrogen (N) Phosphorus (P) Sulfur (S) Also the most abundant in macromolecules

Macromolecule #1: Carbohydrates  C, H, O (ratio 1:2:1)  Purpose: energy and structure  Three types: Monosaccharides (one sugar ring) Dissaccharides (two sugar rings) Polysaccharides (many sugar rings)

Monosaccharides Quick energy Glucose = most important “fuel” in our body Fructose, galactose

Disaccharides Short term energy storage Sucrose (table sugar) = glucose + fructose Lactose = glucose + galactose

Polysaccharides Glycogen = energy storage; found in liver and muscles Starch = provides energy; the most consumed carbohydrate in human diet Cellulose = structural support; found in plants; humans cannot digest it (fiber)

Glycogen

Cellulose

Formation and breakdown of macromolecules fig seen in digestion
