Key Concepts: • Organic compounds have carbon atoms to which hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and other atoms are attached • Cells put together large biological molecules from smaller organic compounds • Glucose and other simple sugars are carbohydrates
Key Concepts: • Complex carbohydrates are polysaccharides • Lipids dissolve in nonpolar compounds • Lipids include neutral fats, phospholipids, waxes, and sterols • Cells use carbohydrates and lipids as building blocks and as their major energy source
Key Concepts: • Proteins have diverse roles forming structures, enzymes, transporters, body defenses, and help in movement • ATP is crucial in metabolism • DNA and RNA are the basis of inheritance and reproduction
