Document Summary

Chapter 2: molecules of cells (pg 18 42) * classes of macromolecules: carbohydrates, proteins, & lipids. Monosaccharide (glucose, fructose(making babies), galactose), glucose: starch is the storage of in plants. Cellulose-most abundant in nature, cell walls of plants. Plate of spaghetti, fruits, vegetables , dairy products. Organic molecules, that burn carbohydrates for energy using. Help maintain a healthy body, in the body they are converted into glucose, that is used for energy throughout the body. Their main biological function is energy storage lipids also function as the structural components of cell membranes. They repel water because they are made of long fatty acid chains. Think about if you were to put oil in a cup of water. Lipids: all are insoluble to water, main function is to store energy. Saturated- butter, milk, ice cream, fatty meats, they clog artiries and raise our ldl (low density lipoprotein-large molecules not easily disposed off)
