  1. Re-Teach Part II

  2. Proteins • The functions of proteins are varied • Immune System • Muscle • Transport

  3. Structure • The monomer of a protein is amino acids These are called amino acids because they have an amino group at one end and a carboxylic acid group at the other.

  4. So, you can identify a protein because it contains an amino group on one end and a carboxylic acid group on the other. The bonds holding the amino acids together are called peptide bonds.

  5. Nucleic Acids • The function of nucleic acids is to hold and transmit genetic information. It is what makes you human (and not a dog), as well as what makes you an individual. • There are two amino acids – DNA and RNA

  6. The monomer of Nucleic Acids is Nucleotides • Nucleotides consist of three parts: A phosphate group, a sugar, and a base. • There are four bases in DNA: A, T, C, G. • There are four bases in RNA: A, U, C, G

  7. DNA vs. RNA

  8. DNA vs. RNA DNA is the template for the production of RNA, which is then used to make proteins DNA RNA Proteins

  9. ATP (Adenosine Tri-Phosphate) • This is the source of energy for your cells • It is made through respiration from glucose The energy in ATP is released when the last phosphate group is broken off. This then results in ADP (diphosphate)

  10. Muscle is made of… • Lipids • Carbohydrates • Protein • Nucleic Acids

  11. The molecule that determines your eye color is • Lipids • Carbohydrates • Protein • Nucleic Acids

  12. A phosphate group, a sugar, and a base compose a… • Amino Acid • Monosaccharide • Nucleotide • Glycerol

  13. A molecule with an amino group and a carboxylic acid group is… • Amino Acid • Monosaccharide • Nucleotide • Glycerol
