Standard 1h

• Students know most macromolecules (polysaccharides, nucleic acids, proteins, lipids) in cells and organisms are synthesized from small collection of simple precursors.

Types of Macromolecules(Organic Compounds)

• Carbohydrates (Polysaccharides) sugars

• Proteinas (Enzymes)

• Nucleic Acids (DNA & RNA)

• Lipids (Fats)

Monosaccharide Amino Acid Nucleotide Fatty Acid

Monomers That Make Up The Macromolecules

• Many Monosaccharide make up a Polysaccharide.

• Many Nucleotides makes up a Nucleic Acid.

• Many Amino Acids make up a protein (Enzyme).

• 3 chains of Fatty Acids attached to a glycerol molecule make up the lipids.

Standard 1b

• Students know enzymes are proteins that catalyze biochemical reactions without altering the reaction equilibrium and the activities of enzymes depend on the temperature, ionic conditions, and the pH of the surroundings.

Enzymes

• They are proteins that are made in the ribosomes of the cell, and are involved in speeding up the millions of chemical reactions needed to sustain life in living things.

• They help certain substrates (reactants) become products quickly, but do not become part of the products.

• They lower the activation energy of a chemical reaction.

Factors that affect Enzyme Function

• Temperature

• pH • Ionic conditions.

Temperature

Review Standards 8th Grade Physical Science

• pH scale 0 14• pH < 7 solution is acidic• pH > 7 solution is basic• pH = 7 solution is neutral

Ionic Conditions

Ionic Conditions at the Molecular Level

Standard 4e

• Students know proteins can differ from one another in the number and sequence of amino acids.

Standard 4f

• Students know why proteins having different amino acid sequences typically have different shapes and chemical properties.
