ORGANIC CHEMISTRY Functional Groups Carbohydrates - A number of hydroxyl groups and a carbonyl group Lipids - 3 fatty acids are linked to a glycerol through dehydration synthesis • Glycerol (an alcohol) – 3 carbons each containing a hydroxyl group • Fatty acid – carboxyl group and a hydrocarbon chain with ~ 15 other carbon atoms Amino Acid – (building blocks for proteins) Carboxyl group and Amino Group Nucleic Acids (DNA, RNA) - phosphate group
Macromolecules • Make a paper showing the basics of the 4 main types of macromolecules • Setup • Box in the middle include: • definition • 3 facts • Picture of polymer/monomer • Divide the paper into 4 boxes (Carbohydrates, Lipids, Proteins, and Nucleic Acids) • Each box should include: • Definition • 3 facts • Structural formula • 3 pictures of examples
Carbohydrates: Definition: 3 Facts: - - - DRAW structural formula Macromolecules Definition: 3 Facts: - - - General picture of polymer & monomer DRAW 3 examples
