Biomolecules are organic molecules built and used inside of _______ Which of the following is not a biomolecule? A. B. C. D. Carbohydrate molecules Lipid molecules Protein molecules Water molecules Biomolecules • Biomolecules are used for these main purposes: – – – – To store chemical _____________ To build cell structures To perform cellular activities To store genetic information Carbohydrates • Main elements are : • Found in abundance in _____________ and vegetables • Monomers: – Called ________________________ – Ratio of elements: • For every carbon atom, add 1 water molecule • What is the monosaccharide formula if there are 5 carbon atoms? ___________ • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6esFOqj_IaY Monosaccharides • The function of monosaccharides is to ______________ for a short term • Monosaccharides are broken down in cellular ________________ into carbon dioxide and water • The energy released from the broken bonds is used to form molecules of ______ (the energy currency of the cell) • Examples of monosaccharides are ___________, fructose, dextrose, and galactose Monosaccharides Disaccharides • When two monosaccharides bond together through dehydration ___________________ a ___saccharide is formed • Di = ___ • These molecules are used as short term energy storage as well • Must be __________________ into individual monosaccharides to be used in cellular respiration • Examples: sucrose, lactose, maltose Polysaccharides (complex carbs) • Polysaccharide = a few hundred to thousand _____________________ joined together • Two main groups based on function: 1. Energy storage (bonds easily broken) • • _____________– how plants store glucose _____________ – how animals store glucose 2. Structural function (strong bonds) • • ________________ – makes up plant cell walls ______________ – makes up arthropod exoskeletons Polysaccharides Polysaccharides • What’s different about starch and glycogen compared with cellulose and chitin? • When blood sugar level is too high: – Cells ____________ glucose molecules from blood – Dehydration synthesis reactions bond glucose molecules together to form ______________ • Stored in liver and muscle cells for later use • When blood sugar level is too high: – __________________ break down glycogen into individual glucose molecules – Cells ___________ glucose molecules into the blood stream • Maintaining the right amount of blood sugar is an example of what characteristic of life? Which of the following carbohydrates is used for long term energy storage? A. B. C. D. 1st molecule 2nd molecule 3rd molecule 4th molecule [MC Types] 12 Lipids • Elements: C, H, and O, but with much less ______ than in carbohydrates • Monomers: ___________ ________ chains – Nonpolar • Don’t dissolve in water • hydrophobic • Other molecules: • _________________ • _________________ (only in phospholipids) Lipid Examples • __________________ : – 3 chains of fatty acids bonded to one glycerol – Functions: long-term energy storage and insulation – Fat = animal triglycerides • More saturated • Solid at room temp. – Oils = plant triglycerides • Less saturated • Liquid at room temp Butter vs. Margarine 14 Lipid examples • __________________: – Two fatty acid chains bonded to a glycerol, bonded to a phosphate head – Head is _____________ • Attracted to water – Tails are _____________ • Repel water – Function: forms cell and organelle membranes • “phospholipid bilayer” forms when put in aqueous solution 15 Phospholipase 16 Lipid examples • Waxes – One fatty acid chain joined to a long chain of glycerol molecules – Waterproof and protective outer coverings such as leaves, skin • Lipid Steroids – Regulation molecules – Ex) cholesterol and steroid hormones such as testosterone and estrogen 17 Carbohydrates are easier to metabolize than lipids. However, on a gram per gram basis, lipids provide cells with more A. B. C. D. nitrogen protein structure energy 18 Protein 19 Proteins • Monomers = _______________ • There are ______ different amino acids (AAs) – All have this general structure, with the ______group representing the molecule that makes each AA unique AAs have: • C,H,O, and ____ • An ______ group • A carboxylic ______ group • A unique ____ group Proteins • • • Polymers = __________________ chains – AA + AA + AA + etc.. = polypeptide – ____________ - the bond formed between two amino acids as a result of dehydration synthesis – A polypeptide is folded into a protein Sequence of AA determines the _______________ of the protein (folded polypeptide) The shape of the protein determines its ___________________ in the cell – Every protein has a different job or function in your cells 22 • Protein Functions _________________ – muscles contract to move materials through out your body and contract to allow you to move • Examples) actin and myosin are proteins involved in muscle contraction • _____________________ – Found in skin, eyes, hair, cartilage, cell organelles • Example) melanin is a protein that determines skin and hair color • _________________________ – Transports materials across a cell and between different cells • ex) _______________ is a protein that transports oxygen throughout body • Help fight _______________ – Antibodies are proteins that attach to invading bacteria and viruses • Regulate the rate of chemical reactions – ______________ are proteins that increase the rate of chemical reactions Nucleic Acids!
