Presentation Transcript

  1. Carbohydrates Pages 34 to 36

  2. Carbohydrates • Composed of… • Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen • CH2O • Monomer/Building Block • Monosaccharides / Glucose • Example… • Sugars & starches • Primary Function • Quick Energy

  3. Monosaccharides • Simple Sugar • Glucose • C6H12O6

  4. Carbohydrate isomers • Glucose and Galactose • C6H12O6 • Sucrose and Maltose • C12H22O11

  5. Disaccharide • Two sugar molecule • Sucrose and maltose • C12H22O11

  6. PolySaccharides • Many sugars • Glycogen • Animal energy storage, highly branched • Starch • Plant energy storage • Cellulose • Plant structure • Cell wall material • Humans can’t digest - fiber

  7. Chitin – polysaccharide of fungi and insects
