Building & Breaking Macromolecules Carbohydrates Lipids Proteins Nucleic Acids Building Macromolecules Monomer • • Ex. glucose, amino acids, nucleic acids Polymer • • Ex. carbohydrates, proteins, DNA Anabolic Reactions * Reactions that produce large molecules from smaller subunits Dehydration Synthesis (condensation) • Catabolic Reactions * The breakdown of complex molecules into simpler ones Hydrolysis • Carbohydrates Understand: Structure & function of carbohydrates Be able to: Draw monomers & polymers Structures & Functions Monosaccharides Disaccharide/Oligosaccharides Polysaccharides Structure General formula: (CH2O)n Isomers: - Same formula, different structure Formation of a Disaccharide You need to be able to DRAW this! Formation of a Disaccharide Polymers Try These: 1. Name 2 functional groups found in the straight-chain form of glucose. 2. Which of the monosaccharides below are isomers? 3. Why are most polysaccharides insoluble in water? 4. Distinguish between the glycosidic bonds in starch and cellulose. 5. Why can humans not obtain energy by eating grass?
