16
What is the role of carbohydrates in the cell?
QUICK ENERGY
17
Examples of carbohyrates:
1. 1 sugar = examples: 2. 2 sugars = example: 3. many sugars = a. found in potatoes, wheat, rice, corn b. animal starch—stores sugar in the liver and muscles c. found in plant cell walls and wood MONOSACCHARIDE glucose, honey, fruit sugar DISACCHARIDE Sucrose (table sugar) POLYSACCHARIDE Starch Glycogen Cellulose
18
LIPIDS Which macromolecules contain only carbon, hydrogen and oxygen
- BUT - have more carbon and hydrogen than carbohydrates and are insoluble in water? LIPIDS
