MACROMOLECULES
2
Carbohydrates main energy source Includes: sugars & starches 3 groups:
1. Monosaccharide – These are themonomers(subunits)(building blocks) simple sugars ex. Glucose & fructose 2. Disaccharides – 2 monosaccharides ex. Lactose & sucrose
3
3. Polysaccharides Examples: Starch – in plants Glycogen – animals
Cellulose – in cell walls Chitin - exoskeleton
4
Ratio of carbon to hydrogen to oxygen is usually 1:2:1
Ex. C6H12O6 sugar has a ring shape & end in “ose” Starches can be hundreds of rings long
5
Benedict’s Solution tests for the presence of sugars by turning from blue to orange / red in the presence of heat Iodine tests for the presence of starch by turn from brown / orange to purple / black
6
About Benedicts solution
A Movie About Benedicts solution
9
Watch brainpop on carbohydrates & take quiz
10
Lipids Function: Energy storage Categorized into fats, oils & waxes
Not water soluble Mostly made of carbon & hydrogen Part of cell membranes
11
Described as “saturated” or “unsaturated”
Includes steroids
12
Examples of Steroids Testosterone Estrogen Progesterone
13
Shape: big
14
Sudan Red-tests for lipids
A translucent spot on a brown paper bag indicates the presence of a lipid Sudan Red-tests for lipids
15
Watch brainpop on fats & Take quiz
16
Nucleic Acid Contains hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon & phosphorus
Made of nucleotides (5- carbon sugar, phosphate group & nitrogenous base)
17
Stores & transmits genetic material
3 types: RNA: Shape = single helix Sugar = ribose
18
DNA: Shape = double helix Sugar = deoxyribose
19
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the nucleotide known as the "molecular currency" of intracellular energy transfer; ATP is able to store and transport chemical energy within cells.
22
Proteins Contain: nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen & oxygen
Made of amino acids
23
controls the rate of reactions
Regulates cell processes Forms bones & muscles Transports substances in & out of cells to fight disease Ex. Enzymes
24
Protein
26
Enzymes SPI Describe how enzymes control chemical reaction in the body
27
What Are Enzymes? Enzymes are Proteins.
Act as Catalysts to accelerate a reaction (make it go faster) Not permanently changed in the process
28
The shape of an enzyme is specific for what it reacts with (it’s substrate)
Are Reusable End in –ase -Sucrase -Lactase
29
What do Enzymes do?? Break things down Make reactions happen faster
Integral to digestive system Without them, you would die
31
How do enzymes Work? Enzymes work by lowering activation energy
32
1- substrate attaches to enzyme
2 - Reaction occurs 3 - Enzyme lets go – substrate floats away – enzyme is unchanged Substrate is now called a product
33
Progress of the reaction Free energy of activation
Enzymes Without Enzyme With Enzyme Free Energy Progress of the reaction Reactants Products Free energy of activation
34
Enzyme-Substrate Complex
The Active Site location where an enzyme binds to the substrate. Active Site Enzyme Substrate

36
Factors Affecting Enzyme Activity
Temperature pH Inhibitors
37
High temperatures are the most dangerous
they denature enzymes (change the shape) Most enzymes like near neutral pH (6 to 8) Inhibitors - slow down enzymes Ex. Preservatives
38
Test for proteins Biuret solution turns from blue to purple or pink in the presence of proteins.
39
For figuring out structure pictures
Cheat Sheet For figuring out structure pictures
40
1. Does it have a P? Yes= Nucleic acid No= go to 2 2. Does it have an N? Yes= Protein No= go to 3
41
3. Is it a ring? Yes = sugar (carbohydrate) Is it rings holding hands? Then it is starch (carbohydrate) Is it big? Than it’s probably a lipid
