INTRODUCTION TO BIOCHEMISTRY!
All LIVING things are mostly made of 4 types of molecules called BIOMOLECULES. BIOMOLECULES are very large molecules of many ATOMS covalently bonded together All BIOMOLECULES contain CARBON (C)
4 categories of BIOMOLECULES proteins carbohydrates lipids nucleic acids
ENERGY  is stored in the COVALENT BONDS of these large molecules.  When we eat, we get energy to live as chemical reactions within our bodies break these bonds. Our bodies can then use the parts of these large molecules to build new molecules that build our bodies.
PROTEINS ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Made of many AMINO ACIDS bonded together in a long chain. C, H, O, N
MONOMER POLYMER CELL STRUCTURE amino acid protein chain muscle fiber PROTEIN
CARBOHYDRATES ,[object Object],[object Object],Made of many SUGARS bonded together in a LONG CHAIN Composed of C, H, and O Single sugar molecule
MONOMER POLYMER CELL STUCTURE sugar starch starch grains in chloroplasts CARBOHYDRATE
LIPIDS ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Composed of C, H, and O A GLYCEROL with 3 FATTY ACID CHAINS Can be SATURATED or UNSATURATED depending on type of BONDS
fatty acid fat molecule adipose (fat) cells SUBUNIT MOLECULE CELL STRUCTURE LIPID
NUCLEIC ACIDS ,[object Object],[object Object],Composed of C, H, N, O, P Made of many NUCLEOTIDES bonded together in a long chain
MONOMER POLYMER CELL STRUCTURE Nucleotide DNA strand chromosome NUCLEIC ACID
