Cornell Notes

Topic/Objective: Unit 3 Biochemistry

Name: Karla Avila

Class/Period: 6
Date: 11/6/16

Essential Question: How does the structure of macromolecules affect their utilization in the body?
Questions:
Level 1- What is
Biochemistry?
Level 2 can you
Explain how
surface
Tension affected

Notes:
Biochemistry living things and chemical compounds ( what
happens in organisms)
Surface tension- force of attraction between water molecules
cohesion when 2 water molecules bond together
Surface tension would be two drops of water on a leaf while
cohesion would be all the water in a cup together.

cohesion?

Solvent- dissolve
Solute- substance getting dissolved
Adhesion water bonding to something else KOOL-AID

Level 3 How are

Monosaccharides simple sugars

Polysaccharides complex sugars

carbohydrates
Lipids, proteins
And acids related

Carbohydrates- sugars and starches

Made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen
Main source of energy
Ring shape, 1:2:1 ration
Lipids- fats oils and waxes
Energy for cells
Lipids and proteins make cell membrane
Primary polymers saturated fats fatty acid solid at room temp
Secondary polymers unsaturated fats olive oil
Carbon , hydrogen, oxygen

Protein growth , repair, skin, muscle, bone, enzymes to speed up

Carbon oxygen hydrogen and nitrogen
Monomers are amino acids
Polymers are made of polypeptide chains
Summary: Water is a strong bond because hydrogen is bonded to oxygen and hydrogen bonds are the strongest
Types of bonds. An item is an acid based on the pH scale. 7 is neural , like water. Above 7
is basic
Like soap. Below 7 is acid like lemon juice. Various tests can be done to determine the
acidity of an
Item. There are organic and inorganic compounds. Inorganic dont contain carbon.

Questions:

Notes:
Globe shape
Primary
Shape
Nucleic Acids
Carbon , hydrogen oxygen nitrogen phosphorus
Store and transmit genetic info
Monomer nucleotide made of 3 parts
Nitrogenous base , 5 carbon sugar, phosphate group
DNA- sugar deoxyribose
RNA- sugar ribose

Level 4- could
chemical
Reactions occur
with
Out enzymes ?

Level 1 what is the

Enzyme- speed reactions act like a catalyst

Enzymes are in active site
Part of creating energy
Enzymes are affected by 5 things
1. Temperature
2. Ph
3. Enzyme concentration
4. Substrate concentration
5. Product concentration
Anabolism- endothermic 2 small create one big
Catabolism- 1 big broken into 2 small exothermic

Formula for finding

Products?

Substrate enters active site-> enzyme substrate complex->

enzyme/products complex-> products leave active site of enzyme

Summary: A monomer is a subunit and the building block of a polymer. A polymer is a large molecule of multiple
Monomers. Anything ending in ose is a sugar and can be classified as a carbohydrate.
Hydrolysis is the
Opposite of creating water. Hypertrophy helps gain muscle.
