Introduction to carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids
Common biochemical's and their structure • Molecules can be classified as being either inorganic or organic • All organic molecules contain the element carbon, although not all carbon-containing molecules are organic • CO2
Functions of carbohydrates in animals and plants • Carbohydrates exist in different sizes • Monosaccharides • Dissaccharides • Polysacchrides
Functions of carbohydrates in animals and plants • All of these carbohydrates serve many functions in living organisms • Animals:
Role of Lipids • Lipids are biochemically important molecules that serve many functions. • Triglyceride lipids • Solid form as fats • Liquid form as oils • If you eat more food than you burn, your body will store much of the excess as fat in adipose cells • Adipose cells get smaller or larger depending on how much lipids is being stored
Role of Lipids • Lipids are very efficient molecules for storing energy • Glycogen is a carbohydrate used by animals to store energy • Starch is a carbohydrates used by plants to store energy • Equal mass of carbohydrates and lipids, the lipid stores approximately twice as much chemical energy as the carbohydrates
Role of Lipids • Lipids are also important for thermal insulation • Blubber!!!
Condensation and hydrolysis reactions • A condensation reaction is responsible for building large molecules. An enzyme catalyzes the reaction between alcohol groups on adjacent monomer units (eg. glucose). This results in the production of a polymer and a molecule of water. • A-H + B-OH -->A-B + H2O
Condensation and hydrolysis reactions • A hydrolysis reaction is responsible for breaking down large molecules (eg. digestion). An enzyme weakens the bond between two parts of a polymer, allowing for the insertion of a water molecule into the bond. This results in the production of monomers. • A-B + H2O-->A-H + B-OH
Condensation and hydrolysis reactions • Digesting Food • Food are chemically digested in your alimentary canal • Digestive enzymes that accomplish this are hydrolysing enzymes • Each reaction requires a molecule of water as a reactant
