Ch. 3.2 Molecules of Life: Macromolecules
![Page 2: Ch. 3.2 Molecules of Life: Macromolecules. Carbohydrates: carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. 1:2:1 Monomer = monosaccharide (simple sugar) (CH 2 O) n where.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022082819/56649e2a5503460f94b176e7/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Carbohydrates: carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. 1:2:1
• Monomer = monosaccharide (simple sugar) (CH2O)n where n = 3 - 8. A six-carbon monosaccharide would be C6H12O6. Most common examples:– glucose: main source of energy in cells– fructose: fruit sugar and the sweetest– galactose: milk

• Because all of the simple sugars (say, 6C sugars) have the same chemical formula but different structural formulas (built differently) they have slightly different chemical properties and are called isomers.
• Disaccharides: double sugar

• Polysaccharides: several to hundreds of simple sugars put together.– glycogen: animal sugar storage (short-term) in
liver and muscles for quick use.– starch: plant sugar storage– cellulose: support

Proteins: carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen
• Monomer = amino acids (20 different) works like our alphabet to create variation.– Each A.A. has an amino group and a carboxyl
group. They differ in their side chains.• dipeptides and polypeptides and created by
condensation reactions. see “Large Carbon Molecules” above. The resulting bond is a peptide bond.

• Enzymes: are biological catalysts– most are protein– Induced-fit model (fig 3-9; p.57)• substrate• active site• optimal conditions• lose shape/lose function

Lipids: do not dissolve in water (polar) so they are nonpolar. “Like dissolves like”.
• Lipids store more energy per gram than other macromolecules.
• Fatty acids: long, straight chains of carbon and hydrogen with a functional group at one end.
• If the carbons have all single bonds then it is saturated with hydrogen: a saturated fat.
• If the carbons have any double bonds then it is unsaturated fat.

• Triglycerides: glycerol + 3 fatty acid chains. – If it contains saturated fatty acids then it is
saturated fat like meat fat or butter (animal fat). – Unsaturated triglycerides are oil (plant fat).

• Phospholipids: glycerol + 2 fatty acid chains + phosphate group.– phosphate head is polar like water– lipid tails are nonpolar and repel water.– phospholipids bilayer see p. 59

• Waxes: structural lipid: long fatty acid chain + long alcohol chain. Protects plants from drying out and ear wax for protection from microorganisms.

• Steroids: four fused carbon rings + various functional groups attached to the rings.– cholesterol is starting point to make testosterone,
estradiol (sex hormones)– needed for nerve cells– cell membrane component

Nucleic Acids: DNA, RNA
• Monomer: nucleotides (phosphate, sugar, base)
• DNA: heredity, cell control• RNA: messenger, transport, organization.• see fig 3-12, p.60
