Macromolecule Chart CarboLipids hydrates Structure/ Description Glucose is building block C6H12O6 Nonpolar; fatty acids & glycerol Proteins Nuc- ATP leic Acids Amino acids Long A~p are building chain ~p blocks s of ~p nucle otides (A-T, C-G) C, H, O, N ExStarch, amples cellulose, ? glycogen, Mono-, di-, polysaccharides Found Plants Where make it; ? cell walls; starchy & sugary foods; animals store it in liver as glycogen Fats, oils, waxes, steroids, phospholipids (cell membr.) Cell membrane, hormones , layers on plants & animals Enzymes, DNA, energy hemoglobin, RNA from muscle fiber food Muscle, hair, blood, plants like peanuts & soybeans Nucleus of all cells All cells make it Job? Impor tance to living organi sms? Carbs Lipids Main source of Energy; Support (like plant cell walls) Waterproofing, Energy, insulation Proteins Enzymes are catalysts, lower “activation energy” Other Humans “satChanging Facts? can’t digest urated” shape (decellulose Means all naturation) (fiber); C’s are by heat or bonded to pH will 4 cal / g. H’s render (“full”) enzymes and solid useless; at room temp., but 4 cal / g. unsaturated are liquid (better for you) Nucleic acids Genetic info., RNA helps DNA to make proteins ATP All cells have both DNA & RNA, but viruses have only 1 All cells make ATP by cellular respiration in the mitochondria (or cell membrane in bacteria) 9 cal / g. Why are all of these molecules considered organic? Energy to fuel all chem.ical reactions
