Life Consists of Simple Molecules Combined
to Form Increasingly Complex Molecules
Example: Sugars combine to make disaccharides, starches and glycogen.
• Biological molecules are made from chains &
rings of carbon.
• Single units of biological molecules (monomers)
can join to form increasingly complex molecules
(polymers) with complex shapes.

Some Molecules Are Polar
(Electrical Charge Distribution Is Uneven)
e.g., Water molecules are polar.
Electrons, which have a negative charge, spend
more time with the larger oxygen atom, so the
oxygen end of the molecule is more negative then
the hydrogen end.

Different Types of Triglycerides (Fats & Oils)
EPA DCHA
Solid at room temperature:
Coconut butter is a fat with mostly saturated fatty acids.
Lard is animal fat, which is rich in saturated fatty acids.
Liquid at room temperature:
Olive oil is a fat with a high amount of oleic acid (18:1, i.e.,
monounsaturated).
Corn oil is a fat with a high amount of linoleic acid (18:2).
Fish oils are fats with unusually long fatty acids (20 or 22
carbon atoms) with 5 or 6 double bonds.

Protein Binding Sites
Protein folding may create “pockets” with a specific shape that can bind other molecules, like a lock that accepts a specific key. This enables them to serve:
As receptors that recognize signal molecules (e.g. hormones).
A defensive function to recognize foreign molecules.
As enzymes that can bind cellular molecules and then break them down or combine them with other molecules to effect synthesis.

These highly specific binding sites enable proteins to function as:
Receptors that recognize signal molecules (e.g. hormones).
Receptors that trigger defensive responses
Antibodies that tag foreign molecules
Enzymes that can bind cellular molecules and then break them down or combine them with other molecules to effect synthesis.

Almost All The Activities of Cells
Are Controlled By Proteins
• Proteins can change shape & properties when another molecule binds to them, causing things to happen.
• Enzymes & channel proteins, act as little programmed chemical robots.
