Resumo de Recurso
Biological molecules
Molecules found in living cells
Metabolism:
All chemical reactions in cells of an organism
Respiration, synthesising proteins from amino acids
Two types of Metabolism:
Catabolism: Breaking down of molecules
Anabolism: Building up of large molecules
Made up of 4 KEY elements:
CARBON (C)
Carbon Valency: 4
NITROGEN (N)
Nitrogen Valency: 3
OXYGEN (O)
Oxygen Valency : 2
HYDROGEN (H)
Hydrogen Valency: 1
VALENCY: Amount of chemical bonds an element can form
Can ALSO include:
Sodium (Na+)
Poatssium (K+)
Calcium (Ca2+)
Iron (Fe2+)
Magnesium (Mg2+)
Chloride (Cl-)
Sulphur (S)
Phosphate (P)
ALL found in biological in TRACE amounts
Your body

Cells
Proteins
Carbohydrates
Lipids/Fats
Nucleic acids
All come from food & macromolecules
Macromolecules are made up of repeated smaller units
Smaller units: monomers
3 types of CARBOHYDRATES
Monosaccharide: simple sugars with general formula (CH2O)n
GLUCOSE
Abundant & very important monosacc
Contains 6 CARBON atoms- HEXOSE sugar
Genreal formula for HEXOSE sugars: C6H1206 e.g. Fructose, Glucose, Galactose
Main ENERGY source for most cells
Highly SOLUBLE
Main form in which Carbs are TRANSPORTED around body of animals
Glucose in diff forms are called STRUCTURAL ISOMERS
ALPHA GLUCOSE
BETA GLUCOSE
Can be found in cellulose (plant cells)
Other monomers: Fructose & Galactose
FRUCTOSE
SOLUBLE & main sugar in fruits & nectar
Sweeter than Glucose
HEXOSE sugar. C6H1206
GALACTOSE
Disaccharide found in lactose
Lactose found in milk (sugar in milk).
HEXOSE sugar C6H1206
Disaccharides: 'Double sugars' formed from 2 monosaccs
Polysaccharide: Large molecules formed from monosaccs joined together.
Group of structural material in organisms
ORGANIC
Contains Carbon (C) & is found in living things EXCEPT Carbon dioxide (CO2) & Bicarbonate ions (HCO-3)
PENTOSE
Sugars that contain 5 carbon atoms
Found in DNA & RNA
Oxyribose & Deoxyribose
