3 structures
polycarbohydrates
is a long chain of mono carbohydrates
dicarbohydrates
consist of two monocarbohydrytes
monocarbphydrates
is a singles compound with c6h12o6
5 main types
waxes
a glycerol bonded to alcohol often found in plats used for water protecion
steroids
are made up of 4 carbon rings
phospholipds
have a double nature of hydrophobic and hydrophilic
fatty acids
are composed of carbon atoms chains with hydrogen atoms
fats
made of a glycerol and 3 fatty acids
4 main nucleotides
guanine
cytosine
adenine
thymine
uracil:in case of RNA changes thymine to uracil
structures
secondary
folds or twist done to the primary structure caused by hydrogen
primary
is a group of amino acids joined by peptide bonds
quantary
a group of polypeptide bonds joins together
tertiary
another folds resulted due to interactions between the proteins amino acids
4 MAIN MACROMOLECULES
carbohydrates are made of carbon hydrogen and oxygen
phospholipdis are also made of a di-glycerol and a phosphate group bond
dna is made of pentose sugar nucleotides are bonded with a phosphodiester bond to the strands while each nucleotide has a weak hydrogen bond to one anther
steroids are found in body like testrogen or cholesterol in which is used to produce vitamin d by ultra violet sunlight rays in case of cholesterol that is also essential to the human body
proteins are one of the last energy sources if needed and broken down they would produce a toxic nitrogenous waste
proteins
nucletides
