Most nonliving things are made of inorganic molecules. Living things are made of organic molecules: carbon is the backbone for organic molecules. Carbohydrates (sugars: cnh2non, monosaccharide is a single unit of glucose, disaccharide 2 sugars. Two monosaccharides linked by a dehydraion synthesis reacion to form a glycosidic bond: polysaccharide 3+ sugars. Macromolecules formed by the polymerizaion of many monosaccharides subunits (monomers) Starch some branches, energy storage in plants. Glycogen highly branched, highly soluble, short term energy storage in animals. Cellulose mad by plants as a structural iber in cell walls: glucose blood sugar. Molecular bonds are broken down by cells to give you energy. 1: complex carbohydrates long, branched chains of monosaccharides, can appear in both a linear form and ring form, dehydraion synthesis (condensaion synthesis) when smaller molecules bond as water is given of (the loss of h2o) Lipids (faty acids: hydrophobic, non-polar molecules, 3 types. Faty acids (triglycerides) long term energy storage, structural support, and insulaion.
