Organic Organic MacromoleculesMacromolecules
Macromolecule literally means “Giant Macromolecule literally means “Giant Molecule”Molecule”
Organic Macromolecules are all based on a Organic Macromolecules are all based on a “skeleton” of carbon atoms.“skeleton” of carbon atoms.
Life is based on Carbon for 2 reasonsLife is based on Carbon for 2 reasons
1.1. Carbon is abundant in natureCarbon is abundant in nature
2.2. Carbon has the ability to bond with itself Carbon has the ability to bond with itself and with many different elementsand with many different elements

PolymerizationPolymerization
Macromolecules are built by linking together Macromolecules are built by linking together smaller molecules (monomers) into long chains smaller molecules (monomers) into long chains (polymers)(polymers)
Monomers combine by disconnecting from some Monomers combine by disconnecting from some of the hydrogen and oxygen atoms between themof the hydrogen and oxygen atoms between them
After the monomers bond, the excess hydrogen After the monomers bond, the excess hydrogen and oxygen atoms form a water molecule.and oxygen atoms form a water molecule.
Since this bonding process releases water, we call Since this bonding process releases water, we call it Dehydration Synthesis it Dehydration Synthesis
Carbohydrates: Carbohydrates: MonosaccharidesMonosaccharides
The monomer of carbohydrates is a single The monomer of carbohydrates is a single sugar with the chemical formula of Csugar with the chemical formula of C66HH1212OO66
These simple sugars are called These simple sugars are called MonosaccharidesMonosaccharides
All monosaccharides have the same chemical All monosaccharides have the same chemical formula, but different shapes.formula, but different shapes.

Carbohydrates: Carbohydrates: Disaccharides Disaccharides
Disaccharide = Double sugar. Disaccharide = Double sugar.
They’re made by joining 2 They’re made by joining 2 monosaccharidesmonosaccharides

LipidsLipids
Lipids are made of mostly carbon and Lipids are made of mostly carbon and hydrogen.hydrogen.
Lipids are used in two ways:Lipids are used in two ways:Storage of energyStorage of energyInsulate and Cushion OrgansInsulate and Cushion Organs
Lipids are composed of two units bonded Lipids are composed of two units bonded together that form the shape of a capital E.together that form the shape of a capital E.Glycerol: The vertical “backbone”Glycerol: The vertical “backbone”Fatty Acids: The horizontal chains Fatty Acids: The horizontal chains
Types of LipidsTypes of Lipids
There are two types of Lipids:There are two types of Lipids:Saturated - when each carbon atom in Saturated - when each carbon atom in
the fatty acid chain is joined to another the fatty acid chain is joined to another carbon by a single bond. The fatty carbon by a single bond. The fatty acids are straight.acids are straight.
Unsaturated - if there is at least one Unsaturated - if there is at least one carbon to carbon bond that is a double carbon to carbon bond that is a double bond in a fatty acid chain. The fatty bond in a fatty acid chain. The fatty acids are bent.acids are bent.

Comparing plant and animal Comparing plant and animal fatsfats
Most animal fats have a high proportion of Most animal fats have a high proportion of saturated fatty acids & exist as solids at room saturated fatty acids & exist as solids at room temperature (butter, margarine, shortening)temperature (butter, margarine, shortening)
Most plant oils tend to be low in saturated fatty Most plant oils tend to be low in saturated fatty acids & exist as liquids at room temperature acids & exist as liquids at room temperature (oils)(oils)
ProteinsProteins
Proteins contain nitrogen as well as Proteins contain nitrogen as well as carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
Proteins are extremely long polymers of Proteins are extremely long polymers of molecules called amino acids.molecules called amino acids.
Proteins are used for muscles, act as Proteins are used for muscles, act as hormones & enzymes, and do much of hormones & enzymes, and do much of the work inside body cellsthe work inside body cells
Protein Folding & Protein Folding & DenaturingDenaturing
Protein chains can bend and fold into a Protein chains can bend and fold into a variety of shapes, depending on the job they variety of shapes, depending on the job they need to do.need to do.
Some large proteins are made by combining Some large proteins are made by combining many protein chains together.many protein chains together.
Changes in temperature & pH can denature Changes in temperature & pH can denature (unfold) a protein so that it no longer works(unfold) a protein so that it no longer works
Denaturating ProteinsDenaturating Proteins
Cooking denatures protein in eggs
Milk protein separates into curds & whey when it is exposed to acids
Nucleic AcidsNucleic Acids
Nucleic acids are macromolecules containing Nucleic acids are macromolecules containing hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, and hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorus.phosphorus.
They are composed of long chains of They are composed of long chains of nucleotides (monomer).nucleotides (monomer).
Nucleic acids store and transmit hereditary, Nucleic acids store and transmit hereditary, or genetic, information.or genetic, information.
