Pregunta Respuesta
Food: provides organisms with nutrients for energy and materials to live Living things need 14 elements most common 6 are carbon(C),hydrogen(H), nitrogen(N),phosphrous(P) and sulphur(S)
5 elements are dissolved in salts: sodium magnesium chlorine potassium and calcium Trace elements are iron, copper and zinc
Biomolecules are chemicals made inside living things biomolecules in food are carbohydrates lipids proteins and vitamins
CARBOHYDRATES made up of carbon hydrogen and oxygen
Types of carbohydrates (i) Monosaccharides (1unit) e.g. gluose, fructose (ii) Disaccharides (2 units) e.g. sucrose, maltose (iii) Pollysaccharides (many units) e.g. starch, cellulose, glycogen
Souces of carbohydrates Bread,potato,rice,flour,sweets
Structural role of carbohydrates Cellulose makes cell walls
Metabolic role 1.Glucose is made in photosynthesis 2.Glucose releases energy in respiration
Uses of carbohydrates 1.To supply energy 2.To store energy
Lipids Made of carbon hydrogen and oxygen
Structure of lipids glycerol + 3 fatty acids = triglyceride
Sources of lipids 1.Butter,ream,lard 2.Cod liver oil,sunflower oil
Structural role of lipids 1.store energy 2.insulate 3.form membranes
Metabolic role of lipids release energy in respiration
PROTEINS made of carbon hydrogen oxygen nitrogen (sulfur and phosphorous)
Structure of protein amino aids, peptides, polypeptides, protein
Sources of protein meat fish eggs milk
Structural role of protein form structures such as skin hair nails and muscle
Metabolic role of protein 1.enzymes 2.some hormones 3.antibodies
VITAMIN C (ascorbic acid) water soluble vitamin
Sources of vitamin c fresh fruit and vegetable
Metabolic role of vitamin c forms connective tissue,bones and teeth,helps healing and immune system
Deficiency survy (poor skin,bleeding,nad teeth and gums)
VITAMIN D (calciferol) fat soluble vitamin
Sources of vitamin d liver, fish oils, milk, make in skin (UV rays)
Metabolic role of vitamin d helps absorb calcium for bones and teeth
Deficiency rickets in children, osteomalacia in adults (weak,deformed,brittle bones)
