Organic Molecules – large molecules that make up all living

organisms.

1. Carbohydrates

2. Lipids

3. Proteins

4. Nucleic Acids

Page 2: Organic Molecules – large molecules that make up all living organisms. 1. Carbohydrates 2. Lipids 3. Proteins 4. Nucleic Acids

Structure:

Simple Sugars – 1 sugar molecule

Complex Sugars – many sugar molecules

Function – main source of energy for living things

Page 3: Organic Molecules – large molecules that make up all living organisms. 1. Carbohydrates 2. Lipids 3. Proteins 4. Nucleic Acids

Complex Carbs:

Glycogen – in animal muscles and liver.

Starch & Cellulose – found in plant cells.

Simple Carbs – glucose

Structure – carbon based molecules that are water fearing “hydrophobic”

Function – store energy, cushioning, insulation, waterproofing.

Fats: lards, butter (animals) room temp

Oils: cooking oil (plants)

Page 6: Organic Molecules – large molecules that make up all living organisms. 1. Carbohydrates 2. Lipids 3. Proteins 4. Nucleic Acids

Structure – carbon based molecules made up of amino acidsFunction – speed up chemical reactions; construction workers of a cell; supervisors of a cell; communication workers of a cell
