Document Summary

Carbs are the most abundant biomolecules & the most common source of energy. Allow for the storage/transport of energy (starch/glycogen) and structural components (cellulose) Monosaccharides are the most basic unit of carbs. Building blocks of disaccharides - 2 joined monosaccharides; the simplest polysaccharides (sucrose & lactose) Composed of 2 monosaccharide units bound together by a covalent bond - glycosidic linkage - formed by dehydration reaction. Results in the loss of a hydrogen atom from one monosaccharide & a hydroxyl group from the other. Sucrose - table sugar - is the most abundant disaccharide & is the main form in which carbs are transported into plants. Polysaccharides have many roles in biological structure & function; i. e. storage molecules - starch. Polymeric carb structures that are joined together by glycosidic bonds. Normally long straight chains but may contain various degrees of branching.

Charts and tables are tools we use in science to break down information analytically and present data in an organized manner. It is a beneficial strategy for learning about and organizing scientific material, which we will be using often in this class. Make sure that you are detailed, thorough, and specific in your responses. Explain yourself clearly. Do not list a word or brief phrase without explaining what it means. For example, if you list diabetes for carbohydrates, make sure you explain how carbs are associated with diabetes. Don't leave the reader to make that connection for you. Also, make sure you provide APA-style references for each of your so
