Levels of organization
Macromolecule
Carbohydrates, proteins,
lipids, found in food help
make me along with nucleic
acids!!!!
Monomer vs Polymer
Monomer-single unit
Polymer: many single units joined together
Dehydration Synthesis: removing
water to form polymers
Hydrolysis: adding water to
break down into monomers
C H O
1: 2: 1
Main source of
energy, especially
short term energy
Monomer: Sugar
Monosaccharide: simple sugar
Used for genetic material,
which codes for traits
Monomer: Nucleotide
CHONP
DNA: A C G T
RNA: A G C U
Disaccharide: double (two) sugars
Polysaccharide: many (large) sugars
Carbohydrates
Glucose,
Nucleic Acids
DNA, RNA, ATP
Starch,
Cellulose,
Glycogen
Macromolecules
Lipids
Proteins
Fats, Oils,
Enzymes,
Waxes
Cell structure
Saturated: only C-C single bonds
Unsaturated: at least 1 C = C double bond
Triglyceride: 3 fatty acids + glycerol
CHO
Monomer: Triglyceride
Bonded by: Peptide Bonds
Used for long term
energy storage
Used for antibodies, muscle
movement, enzymes, hormones,
structure, transport, and to
store amino acids
Monomer: Amino Acid
C H O N (S)
Crash Course Biomolecules
Enzymes: Are Proteins
Enzymes accelerate, or catalyze, chemical
reactions
No living organism can
Function WITHOUT Enzymes
Enzymes:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Build molecules: Synthesis Enzymes
Break Down Molecules: Digestive enzymes
Speed up reactions: Catalysts
Lowers activation energy:
Lock and Key Theory
Each enzyme needs to be
the right shape for the
job.
Can affect the enzyme
action.
1. Temperature
2. pH
If the temp. and pH is to
extreme the enzyme will
denature.
Denature: permanently
change the shape of the
enzyme. Will no longer
work
Enzymes are proteins
• Each enzyme is the specific helper to
a specific reaction
• enzymes are named for the reaction
they help
•

•
•
Oh, I get it!
They end
in -ase
sucrase breaks down sucrose
proteases breakdown proteins
lipases breakdown lipids
DNA polymerase builds DNA
