Questão Responda
What are biological molecules? and give examples Molecules made and used by Living organisms E.g Carbohydrates, Proteins, DNA, ATP Water, Inorganic Ions
Functions of Carbohydrates -Store of Energy -Energy source -Structure
Give examples of the functions -Source, Glucose in respiration -Store, Starch in Plants + Glycogen in Animals -Structure, Cellulose in cell walls
Name of building blocks of Carbohydrates Monosaccharides
Example of Monosaccharide Glucose ( a + b) , Glactose, Fructose
Formula for Monosaccharides C₆H₁₂O₆ - All Monosaccharides have same formula but different arrangement (Isomers)
Differences between Glucose A + B Alpha have H group on top and OH on the bottom with Beta reversed
How monosaccharides join together? Condensation reaction - remove water
Bond in Carbohydrates Glycosidic
What is a disaccharide? Two monosaccharides and a glycosidic bond
Name the 3 disaccharides and what monosaccharides are involved? Glucose (A) + Glucose (A) = Maltose Glucose (A) + Galactose = Lactose Glucose (A) + Fructose = Sucrose
Disaccharide formula C₁₂H₂₄O₁₁
How are Saccharide polymers separated Hydrolysis, add water
Definition of Polysaccharides? Many monosaccharides joint together by glycosidic bonds - condensation reactions
Example of polysaccharides? -Amylose, A Glucose ( type of glycogen) -Cellulose, B Glucose (Walls of plant cells)
What does many polysaccharides make up? Carbohydrate
What is Starch? Main energy storage in plants
Name the two types of Starch and properties Amylose - Coiled, no branches, compact Amylopectin - Many branches, long, enzyme can breakdown with ease as many branches STARCH - Insoluble! Doesn't affect water potential
Properties of Cellulose Long straight chains of beta glucose, Hydrogen bonds cross-link together polymers of B glucose. Many hydrogen bonds form Microfibrils. Support plant cell walls. Insoluble and don't affect water potential
Properties of Glycogen Human version of starch - highly branched, for enzyme to break down, compact, store of excess glycogen
What does many microfibrils form Macrofibrils
Test for starch Iodine dissolved in potassium iodine solution Blue/Black colour
Test for reducing sugars Dissolve solution Add Benedict's Heat - don't boil Colour chain from blue
Test for Non-reducing Sugars Do a reducing sugar test add hydrochloric acid- break it down Add hydrogen carbonate - neutralises solution Add Benedict's and heat Brick Red
Name two reducing sugars ALL Monosaccharides and Some Disaccharides ( Maltose and Lactose)
Name one non reducing sugars Sucrose
