| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| CARBOHYDRATES | made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen (2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen for every carbon) |
| What is the First type of Carbohydrates | Monosaccharides-simple sugars-Benedict's Solution is used to test for |
| MONOSACCHARIDES EXAMPLES | Glucose-immediate sources of energy for organism |
| What is the second type of Carbohydrates | Polysaccharides-complex sugars |
| POLYSACCHARIDES EXAMPLES | -Glycogen:an energy storage molecule for mammals -Starch:an energy storage molecule for plants-IODINE test for -Cellulose:used in the cell walls of plants |
| LIPIDS | Contains carbon,hydrogen, and oxygen (many hydrogen carbon bonds and few oxygen carbon bonds) |
| What are Lipids | -Commonly called fats and oil -Used for energy storage, insulation and protective coating (esp.the cell membrane) Subunits are glycerol and fatty acids -A simple test for lipids is using a brown paper bag |
| PROTEINS | Contains carbon,hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrigen |
