EQ: . How does the unique structure of the macromolecules correspond to their function?. copyright cmassengale. Standard. :. SB1c: Determine the essential elements of the four macromolecules (proteins, lipids, nucleic acids & carbohydrates) .Identify the functions of the four main macromolecules (polymer and monomers) Explain the characteristics and function of enzymes. . Introduction. Macro = big. Made of carbon molecules. Monomer = small molecule (one part) . Can make polymers. Polymers = many parts . Macromolecule. m. onomer-monomer-monomer-monomer. Carbohydrates. Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen in ratio of 1:2:1. SB1c. Identify the function of the four major macromolecules.. Atoms Why is carbon the central atom of living things?. SULFUR. PHOSPHORUS. OXYGEN. NITROGEN. CARBON. HYDROGEN. H. C. N. O. P. S. Which . 1. What is Biochemistry?. Biochemistry = chemistry of life. . Biochemists use physical and chemical principles to explain biology at the molecular level.. Basic principles of biochemistry are common to all living organism. What is structure?. What is function?. The . structure. is the shape of each part of a living thing. . Function. . describes how the part . is used . or how it works.. Velcro, a road reflector, a video game joystick, and a submarine's ballast tanks all have structures inspired by nature.. Attractive force between particles of the same kind. ____________________. Attractive force between unlike substances. _______________________. In a mixture of water and cool-aid which would be the solute and which would be the solvent?. Part II: Proteins & Nucleic Acids. The FOUR Classes of Large Biomolecules. All living things are made up of four classes of large biological molecules: . Carbohydrates . Lipids. Protein. N. ucleic Acids. The element Carbon is found in most living organisms.. The study of carbon based molecules is known as Organic Chemistry.. Other key elements in cells are:. Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Phosphorous, and Sulfur. Independent. Group. Macromolecule Activity. Standard. SB1. Students will analyze the nature of the relationships between structures and functions in living cells.. c. Identify the function of the four major macromolecules (i.e., carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, nucleic acids). . Biochemistry-Macromolecules 4 types Carbohydrates Lipids Proteins Nucleic Acids Carbohydrates Function of Carbohydrates Energy source!!! Energy is stored in the C-H bonds Plant Structure Cellulose is a carbohydrate found in the cell wall of plants The Structure and Function of Macromolecules Part II: Proteins & Nucleic Acids The FOUR Classes of Large Biomolecules All living things are made up of four classes of large biological molecules: Much larger than other particles found in cells. Made up of smaller subunits. Found in all cells. Great diversity of functions . Four Classes of Biological Macromolecules. Lipids. Polysaccharides. Overview: The Molecules of Life. Within cells, small organic molecules are joined together to form larger molecules. Macromolecules are large molecules composed of thousands of covalently connected atoms.
