2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
! Carbon atoms have unique bonding properties.
• Carbon forms covalent bonds with up to four other atoms, including other carbon atoms.
• Carbon-based molecules have three general types of structures. 1. straight chain 2. branched chain 3. ring

2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
• Many carbon-based molecules are made of many small subunits bonded together.
– Monomers are the individual subunits. – Polymers are made of many monomers that are
bonded together.

2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
! Four main types of carbon-based macromolecules are found in living things:
1) Carbohydrates are made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
![Page 5: 2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules - Warren County Public Schools · 2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules ! Carbon atoms have unique bonding properties. • Carbon forms covalent bonds with up to four](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042316/5f0523107e708231d41173da/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
• EXAMPLES OF CARBOHYDRATES:
– Carbohydrates include sugars and starches.
– Monosaccharides are simple sugars like glucose.
– Polysaccharides are monosaccharides that are linked together and include starches, cellulose, and glycogen.

2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
• Carbohydrates can be broken down to provide energy for cells.
• Some carbohydrates are part of cell structure.
Polymer (starch) Starch is a polymer of glucose monomers that often has a branched structure.
Polymer (cellulose) Cellulose is a polymer of glucose monomers that has a straight, rigid structure monomer

2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
– Many contain carbon chains called fatty acids. – Fats and oils contain fatty acids bonded to glycerol.
2) Lipids are nonpolar molecules that include fats, oils, and cholesterol.
Triglyceride

2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
• Lipids have several different functions.
– broken down as a source of energy – make up cell membranes – used to make hormones

2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
• Fats and oils have different types of fatty acids.
– saturated fatty acids – unsaturated fatty acids

2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
• Phospholipids make up all cell membranes.
– Polar phosphate “head” (hydrophilic) – Nonpolar fatty acid “tails” (hydrophobic)

2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
3) Proteins are polymers of amino acid monomers.
– Twenty different amino acids are used to build proteins in organisms.

2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
– Amino acids differ in side groups, or R groups. – Amino acids have an amine group (NH2) and a carboxyl
group (COOH)
• Amino acids are monomers of proteins.

2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
• Proteins differ in the number and order of amino acids.
– Amino acids interact to give a protein its shape.
– Incorrect amino acids change a protein’s shape which changes the way it works.

2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
– Nucleotides are made of a sugar, phosphate group, and a nitrogen base.
A phosphate group nitrogen-containing molecule, called a base
deoxyribose (sugar)
• Nucleotide monomers make up nucleic acids.
