---|---|
Carbohydrates Structure | Built of small repeating units that form bonds with each other to make a larger molecule. For every one carbon there will be 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen at a 2-1 1-2 ratio |
Carbohydrates Function | Used to store energy and sometimes structure. For every 1 carbon there will be 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen CHH20 |
Protein Structure | A sequenced chain of amino acids that have a 3 dimmensional shape. Carbon hydrogen nitrogen and oxygen. 20 different amino acids. |
Protein Function | Is essential to the structure of red blood cells, for the proper functioning of anti-bodies resisting infection, for the regulation of enzymes and hormones for growth. |
