3 Multiple Choice Questions
- Saturated Fats have on glycerol backbone and three attached fatty acids
Unsaturated Fats are the same but are crooked in their shape or bent - Structure: like shapes (pentagons, hexagons, etc)
Examples: Glucose, Fructose, Ribose, and Galatacose
Glucose Structure vs Ribose Structure:
Glucose has six sides and Ribose has five sides
Glucose has more letters so more sides.
Functions of Examples:
Glucose = energy sugar
Fructose = sugar in fruits - Definition: a long molecule made up of smaller subunits (monomers) which is linked by covelant bond
How they are made?: condensation or dehydration synthesis in which monomers are bonded to form polymers using an enzyme in which water is removed
Examples:
monosacharides use dehydration synthesis to create disaccharides or polysacharides whose covelant bond is called glycoside bonds
peptides use dehydration synthesis to create dipeptides and polypeptides whose covelant bonds are called peptide bonds
lipids use dehydration syntehsis to form triglycerides.
the reverse is called hydrolysis in which water is put back into the reaction to split the polymer into the separate monomers.

3 True/False Questions
-
Polysaccharides Structure, Examples, and Functions → Structure: like shapes (pentagons, hexagons, etc)
Examples: Glucose, Fructose, Ribose, and Galatacose
Glucose Structure vs Ribose Structure:
Glucose has six sides and Ribose has five sides
Glucose has more letters so more sides.
Functions of Examples:
Glucose = energy sugar
Fructose = sugar in fruits -
Glycerol and Fatty Acids Function and Structure → Function: store energy (lots of it), insulation (layer of fat right under skin to prevent heat loss), structure cell membrane, etc. Structure: has carbons, hydrogens, and oxygens CHO
-
Distinguish between Organic and Inorganic compounds → Organic has carbon in it
EXCEPTION: Carbon Dioxide = inorganinc
