1. BIOLOGICAL
MOLECULES

2. Biomolecule, also called biological
molecule, any of numerous
substances that are produced by cells
and living organisms. Biomolecules
have a wide range of sizes and
structures and perform a vast array of
functions.

3. Four types of biological
molecules:
•CARBOHYDRATES
•PROTEINS
•LIPIDS
•NUCLEIC ACID

4. CARBOHYDRAT
ES

5. CARBOHYDRATES -Main
source of energy.
SACCHARIDE is the sub unit
of Carbohydrates
Elements of Carbohydrates
CARBON, HYDROGEN,
OXYGEN

6. Two Example of
saccharide
•simple
•complex

7. SIMPLE
•monosaccharide
•*glucose(dextrose)
•*galactose(dairy milk)
•*fructose (sperm)
•Disaccharide
•*sucrose
•*lactose
•*maltose

8. Complex•Polysaccharide
•*amylose
•*amylopectine
•*glycogen
•*cellulose

9. PROTEIN
S

10. Protein-Repair and
gworth of body tissues.
Amino Acid-sub-unit of
proteins.
Elements of Proteins
•CARBON,HYDROGEN
,OXYGEN,NITROGEN

11. • Amino Acid -The
building block of
protein
Functions of proteins
•Transport
•Storage
•Antibodies

12. Example of Proteins
•Keratin
•Fibroin/Silk
•Collagen
•Enzymes
•Myoglobin
•Hemoglabin
•Immune System

13. LIPIDS

14. Lipids-came from the greek word
"lipos"which means "fat"
Fatty Acids-sub-unit of lipids
Elements of lipids
CARBON
HYDROGEN
OXYGEN

15. Different Examples
1.Triglyceride
2.Phospolipids
3.Wax
4.Steroids

16. NUCLEIC
ACID

17. Nucleic Acids-are molecules in our
cells that stores and direct information
for cellular growth and reproduction.
Nucleotide -sub-unit of Nucleic Acid
Elements of nucleicacid
Carbon
Hydrogen
Oxygen
Nitrogen
Phosphorus

18. Example of Nucleic
acids
Ribonucleic Acid
Deoxyribonucleic Acid
