THE MOLECULES OF LIFE
CARBOHYDRATES
LIPIDS
PROTEINS
NUCLEIC ACIDS
What about vitamins and minerals?
Like vitamins C and D
And minerals like calcium and iron
And water!
These are needed for cellular activities & processes as well as body construction
THE MOLECULES OF LIFE
PROVIDES ENERGY
FIBER
SWEETS AND BREADS
THE MOLECULES OF LIFE
ENERGY STORAGE
& CELL GROWTH
UNSATURATED
OILS, FATTY MEATS
THE MOLECULES OF LIFE
REPAIRING BODY PARTS, SUPPLYING ENERGY, AND FIGHTING INFECTIONS
22 DIFFERENT AMINO ACIDS; 8 WE MUST OBTAIN FROM FOODS
FISH, POULTRY, MILK, GRAINS, AND BEANS
THE MOLECULES OF LIFE
What are the four major macromolecules?
What three elements are found in all four of the major macromolecules?
When the three main elements form a monosaccharide, it can make a six-carbon molecule called ___________________
Monosaccharides form into a _______ shape.
When you put two monosaccharides together it forms a _______, like lactose.
When you put three or more monosaccharides together it forms _______, like glycogen.
THE MOLECULES OF LIFE
There are three types of lipids: _______ , _______ , _______
Describe the function of each type of lipid
Lipids are hydrophobic. This means….
Fatty acids are made from chains of carbon and hydrogen. How does the structure of phospholipids and steroids differ from fatty acids?
THE MOLECULES OF LIFE
In addition to carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, what two elements are also found in proteins and nucleic acids?
What is the function of proteins?
Draw the general structure of a protein.
THE MOLECULES OF LIFE
Nucleic acids are made of nucleotides. Draw the general structure of a nucleotide.
What are the functions of DNA and RNA?
