  1. Biochemistry

  2. Objectives

  3. What is Biochemistry?

  4. Remind me

  5. Why is photosynthesis so important?

  6. Carbon Cycle Spend 10 minutes looking at this poster and then in groups of four draw your own copy from memory.

  7. Photosynthesis equation • Carbon dioxide + Water • Makes • Glucose + oxygen • 6CO2 + 6H2O = C6H12O6 + 6 O2

  8. Glucose

  9. What can we make from glucose

  10. Sugars

  11. Monosaccharides

  12. Aldose and ketose Aldopentose Ketohexose

  13. Number of carbons • 3 C Triose • 4C tetrose • 5C Pentose • 6C Hexose • The simplest ketose is a triose called dihydroxypropanone (draw its structure)

  14. Glucose • Glucose is an aldohexose • So too is galactose. What is the difference?

  15. Glucose and fructose Fructose Glucose What is the difference?

  16. Two forms of glucose Spot the difference!

  17. Plenary
