This document discusses the main biological macromolecules - carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. It states that these macromolecules are made up of smaller molecules, such as carbohydrates from monosaccharides like glucose, proteins from amino acids, and fats from fatty acids and glycerol. The document also notes that the body breaks down these large molecules into smaller molecules through hydrolysis and lists the chemical elements that make up each macromolecule - carbohydrates contain C, H, O, fats contain C, H, O, and proteins contain C, H, O, N, and sometimes S. It provides examples of foods rich in each macromolecule and describes some of their main
3. Objectives of The Lesson
∙ List the chemical elements that make up: carbohydrates,
fats and proteins
∙ State that large molecules are made from smaller
molecules, limited to:
(a) Starch, glycogen and cellulose from glucose
(b) Proteins from amino acids
(c) Fats and oils from fatty acids and glycerol
4. How our bodies break
down the foods we eat?
Our Bodies will break down large molecules into
smaller molecules By Hydrolisis
13. Large molecules are made from smaller molecules
Made up of smaller molecules : sugars or monosaccharides.
e.g. glucose, fructose … we call them simple sugars
Two sugars combined together are called disaccharides e.g. Sucrose (table
sugar) = glucose + fructose, Lactose (milk sugar) = glucose + galactose, Maltose
(malt sugar) = glucose + glucose
Many sugars bonded together make a polysaccharide
e.g. starch, cellulose, glycogen.
Carbohydrates
Plant cells
for storage
Plant cell walls
For give
structure
Animal cells for storage
animals (mostly found in the
muscle tissue)
15. Carbohydrates serve as the main
source of fuel energy for all living
beings, they are the main metabolic
fuel of plants, animals, and humans.
Functions of Carbohydrate
20. Fat molecules contain C,H,O
Fat molecule contains one glycerol
and three fatty acids
◾ Glycerol
�Three carbon alcohol
◾ Long chain fatty acids (carbon
chain)
▣ Chemical Elements Fats :
21. Functions of Fats
1. Fats serve to store energy and provide
thermal insulation to plants and animals.
2. Fats are needed to:
Make cell membranes of cells
3. Good energy storage
4. Act as a heat insulator under the skin
5. Protect some organs
25. Chemical Elements Proteins :
Protein molecules contain elements: C,H,O,N (S,P)
Proteins are made of smaller molecules called amino acids.
Two amino acids bonded together are called dipeptides.
Many amino acids bonded together make a polypeptide.
26. a. Helps to repair damaged cells and tissues
b. Needed by the body for healthy grow
