Structure and function of polymers are derived from the way their monomers are assembled.

Polymers Covalent monomers Condensation
reaction (dehydration reaction): One monomer provides a hydroxyl group while the other provides a hydrogen to form a water molecule
Hydrolysis:bonds
between monomers are broken by adding water (digestion)

Carbohydrates Summary: Carbohydrates are
composed of sugar monomers whose structures and bonding with each other by dehydration synthesis determine the properties and functions of the molecules.
Illustrative examples include: cellulose versus starch.

Lipids Summary In general, lipids are
nonpolar; however, phospholipids exhibit structural properties, with polar regions that interact with other polar molecules such as water, and with nonpolar regions where differences in saturation determine the structure and function of lipids.

Protein Summary In proteins, the specific order of amino acids in
a polypeptide (primary structure) interacts with the environment to determine the overall shape of the protein, which also involves secondary tertiary and quaternary structure and, thus, its function.
The R group of an amino acid can be categorized by chemical properties (hydrophobic, hydrophilic and ionic), and the interactions of these R groups determine structure and function of that region of the protein.

Nucleic Acids Summary In nucleic acids, biological information is
encoded in sequences of nucleotide monomers. Each nucleotide has structural components:
a five-carbon sugar (deoxyribose or ribose), a phosphate and a nitrogen base (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine or uracil).
DNA and RNA differ in function and differ slightly in structure, and these structural differences account for the differing functions.
![Page 25: Essential knowledge 4.A.1:](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062814/568166dc550346895ddb029c/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Directionality influences structure and function of the polymer.
Examples are found in DNA, Proteins and Carbohydrates on the following slides.

DNA 1. Nucleic acids have
ends, defined by the 3' and 5' carbons of the sugar in the nucleotide, that determine the direction in which complementary nucleotides are added during DNA synthesis and the direction in which transcription occurs (from 5' to 3').

Proteins 2. Proteins have an amino (NH2) end and a
carboxyl (COOH) end, and consist of a linear sequence of amino acids connected by the formation of peptide bonds by dehydration synthesis between the amino and carboxyl groups of adjacent monomers.

Carbohydrates 3. The nature of the bonding between
carbohydrate subunits determines their relative orientation in the carbohydrate, which then determines the secondary structure of the carbohydrate.
