Organic Compounds & Carbohydrates
Organic Molecules
• All contain at least one carbon atom
• Carbon forms four covalent bonds
• Likes to bond with hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and other carbons!
Organic MoleculesWhat type of bond is present in all of these structures?
C-H Bonds!!
Making Molecules
What are Monomers? Single units that make up larger polymers
Like links in a chain!
What are Polymers?
Made by linking together many monomers
The CHAIN itself!
Linking Monomers
Dehydration Synthesis
What occurs in dehydration?Water is Lost
What does synthesis mean?To build
So dehydration synthesis removes a water molecule to build a polymer!!
Dehydration Synthesis
Unlinking Monomers
Hydrolysis
What does hydro mean?
WaterWhat does lysis
mean?To break apart
So Hydrolysis uses water to break apart polymers!
Hydrolysis
• What is the purpose of hydrolysis?To break apart glucose for energy!
Occurs in DIGESTION!!!
Carbohydrates – How They’re Made
Made up of C, H, O,
Carbohydrates – How they’re Made
What does the name carbohydrate mean?
“Carbo” from Carbon (C)
“Hydrate” from Water (H2O)
What are the monomers of a carbohydrate?Monosaccharides
What does mono mean?What is a saccharide?
One Sugar or Simple Sugar!
Carbohydrates – How they’re Made
• Many monosaccharides are isomers of each other
• So what are isomers?
Compounds with the same molecular formula (same
number of atoms) but different structural formula
Same molecular formula
Different structural formula
What is the ratio of carbons:hydrogens:oxygen?
1:2:1
Carbohydrates – How they’re Made
If a monosaccaride is one sugar, what are Disaccharides?
Sugars made up of two monosaccarides
• Formed through dehydration synthesis
Two Monosaccharides Disaccharide
Table Sugar
What’s happening here?
Carbohydrates – How they’re Made• What are Polysaccarides?
Many sugars! AKA Complex Carbohydrates
Includes:StarchGlygogenCelluose
Animals consume and break down starch to obtain glucose
Used for energy (ATP) storage in plants
Animals break down glycogen to obtain quick energy(ATP) from glucoseUsed for energy (ATP) storage in animals
Animals cannot break it down- this is the fiber in your diet!
Cellulose has a different type of bond. The long chains of monomers actually link to each other.
Primary structural molecule in plants. Cell Walls!!
