- Introduction Organic Substance produced through biological
process Based upon carbon Also often contains H, N, O, P, S
- Slide 3
- Biomolecule FunctionStructureExamples Carbohydrates Lipids
Proteins Nucleic acids Store hereditary information DNA, RNA
- Slide 4
- Functional groups Specific groups of atoms within molecules
that are responsible for the characteristic chemical reactions of
those molecules. The same functional group will undergo the same or
similar chemical reaction(s) regardless of the size of the molecule
it is a part of
- Slide 5
- Some Common Functional Groups:
- Slide 6
- All of them!
- Slide 7
- Organic molecules are polymers Made of repeating units, called
monomers Condensation/dehydration Reactions link monomers in a
chain
- Slide 8
- Chemistry of carbohydrates Contain C, H & O. Examples:
Sugars, starches, cellulose Sugars can be simple or complex organic
compounds.
- Slide 9
- Which carbohydrates are simple and which are complex?
- Slide 10
- Monosaccharides: Simple sugars Include glucose, fructose, &
galactose. Each has the same chemical formula: C 6 H 12 O 6, but
each with a different structure.
- Slide 11
- Identify the differences between the different
monosaccharides.
- Slide 12
- Disaccharidesthe complex sugars Result when 2 simple sugars
bond together. Sucrose consists of 1 glucose and 1 fructose. Other
examples include lactose, trehalose, & maltose.
- Slide 13
- What is the relationship between monosaccharides and these
disaccharides? How are all these disaccharides the same?
- Slide 14
- Polysaccharides 3 or more simple sugars bonded together. Common
examples: Starch and Cellulose (only found in plants) Glycogen
found in animals Helps animals to store energy in the liver and
muscles
- Slide 15
- What is the difference between these polysaccharides?
- Slide 16
- Which Functional Groups do all Carbohydrates have?
- Slide 17
- Proteins More than 50% of the dry weight of animals are made up
of proteins. They often act as enzymes (biological catalysts)
Contain C, H, N, O
- Slide 18
- What is the protein/enzyme doing in this picture?
- Slide 19
- Amino Acids Polymers of amino acids. Amino acids consists of 2
functional groups - the Carboxyl and the Amino group.
- Slide 20
- What makes up the amino group? What makes up the carboxylic
acid group?
- Slide 21
- What is the difference between one amino acid and another?
- Slide 22
- Peptide bonds Amino acids link through the amino group on one
amino acid & the carboxyl group on another. Each linkage is
called a peptide bond
- Slide 23
- Find the amino groups and carboxyl groups in the first picture.
Compare the first picture to the second. What happens to bond the
two amino acids together?
- Slide 24
- Answer? Water is removed when they are joined Dehydration
reaction
- Slide 25
- Human body and amino acids The human body can produce 12 of the
20 amino acids. The other 8 (essential amino acids) must be gotten
from protein in the diet. Any protein that contains enough of all
the essential amino acids = complete protein. Combinations of plant
proteins that can provide adequate amounts of all essential amino
acids = complementary proteins.
- Slide 26
- Lipids Broad term applied to the following molecules: Fats
Waxes Steroids Fat-soluble Vitamins
- Slide 27
- Lipids Lipids can have the following functions: Store Energy
Insulate Repel Water Form cell Membranes
- Slide 28
- Match each picture with the function of lipids.
- Slide 29
- Lipids Examples: Fatty Acids Cholesterol Phospholipid
Triglycerides Steroids
- Slide 30
- What functional groups are found in these fatty acids?
- Slide 31
- How does this triglyceride compare to the fatty acids
triglyceride Main component of Animal Fat and Vegetable Oils
- Slide 32
- Which side of the phospholipid below would like water? Which
would not? Why? Phospholipids are the main component of cell
membranes
- Slide 33
- What is a problem too much cholesterol could cause? Cholesterol
is part of cell membrane and can be made into Vitamin D and
hormones like testosterone and estrogen
- Slide 34
- Vitamins An organic compound required as a nutrient in tiny
amounts by living things.
- Slide 35
- Slide 36
- What functional groups does this vitamin have?
- Slide 37
- What about this one?
- Slide 38
- No Way!
