  1. Types: carbohydrates, lipids (fats), proteins, and nucleic acids

  2. Back by popular Demand!Quiz TUESDAY 2/25

  3. What is fat? macromolecule m a o m o • Fat is a _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _. • Which simply means: Large molecules made up of smaller molecules linked together that are used to keep your body functioning Other typesare carbohydrates, lipids (fats), proteins, and nucleic acids

  4. What is fat? • Fat is also known as Lipids. • Fats are macromolecules that are able to store unused energy (infinite storage). • Why do we need lipids (fats), you ask? Well let’s think about our body…

  5. Our bodies are filled with H2O!

  6. And water, even in our bodies is still the U_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ S _ _ _ _ _ _. Its dissolves almost everything. Universal Solvent

  7. Surrounding cells! But why… Where are fats primarily found? Water dissolves… Your brain uses electricity to tell you what to do…

  8. Random yet useful…. Electrical Conductivity of oil: • Using controlled conditions an test was assembled together using a digital volt/ohm/ammeter, a sample of engine oil, transmission oil, water and an automotive battery.The three test liquids were put in paper cups. They weretested for continuity in the three samples with the ohmmeter starting with the lowest setting and progressively switching to the highest most sensitive settings.Results: water passes current at some of the higher resistance settings while the 2 two respective oil samples did not have any continuity, even when the meter was on its most sensitive setting. This test was conducted multiple times and the expected result was obtained: electricity will flow thru water but the oil samples did not allow any measurable current to flow.So in conclusion… oil is in fact an insulator

  9. Lorenzo’s oil… • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41v9TuIFu_s • followed by fish oil for brain traumas! http://www.cnn.com/2014/01/18/health/fish-oil-recovery/

  10. Macromolecules that are used quickly for energy (limited storage). Carbohydrates

  11. Macromolecules that are used for repair, building, and chemical reactions (digestion). Proteins

  12. Why does fat jiggle and muscle does not? Protein Fat

  13. Macromolecules, such as DNA, that are used to tell the body what to make (mitosis). Nucleic acids
