1 Bio-molecules Macro meaning large
4 macromolecules Bio-molecules Macro meaning large

2 Polymers… many monomers put together
A monomer is a compound that can join other compounds to form polymers

3 Biological Polymers Proteins Carbohydrates Lipids Nucleic acids

4 Proteins Amino acids joined together 15% of our body
Tissues, muscle, hair, nerves NH2 Amine group COOH Carboxyl group Both groups appear in all amino acids There are 20 amino acids Build and repair tissues in the body

5 Nucleic Acids Control cell reproduction DNA deoxyribonucleic acid
RNA ribonucleic acid DNA stores genetic information RNA helps makes proteins inorganic

6 Carbohydrates C,H,O Sugars and starches Sugars are quick energy
Starches are long lasting fuel Carbs are the bodys’ main source of energy

7 Lipids Fats and oils C H O Contain less Oxygen than carbs
Cholesterol is a lipid Store 2x the energy as carbs
