Study Notes
Module Overview
- Focus on macromolecules: carbohydrates and lipids.
- Developed collaboratively by educators from Pasig City's Schools Division Office.
- Aims to support guided and independent learning with emphasis on 21st-century skills, including communication, collaboration, creativity, critical thinking, and character.
Expectations
- Define macromolecules and understand their importance.
- Distinguish structures and functions of carbohydrates and lipids.
- Recognize the balance of carbohydrates and lipids in food intake.
Macromolecules: Carbohydrates
- Carbohydrates are crucial energy sources; polysaccharides include starch (plants) and glycogen (animals).
- Starch consists of amylose (coiled structure) and amylopectin (branched structure); key for energy storage.
- Humans digest starch by breaking down glucose units, which provide steady energy.
- Cellulose, another polysaccharide, is not digestible by humans but plays a role in digestive health.
Macromolecules: Lipids
- Lipids include saturated (fats) and unsaturated (oils) fatty acids.
- Saturated fatty acids have no double bonds; typically solid at room temperature (e.g., butter).
- Unsaturated fatty acids have one or more double bonds, which lower melting points; typically liquid (e.g., oils).
- Cholesterol is a significant steroid found in animal cell membranes, essential for various cellular functions, including hormone synthesis and maintaining membrane integrity.
Activity Highlights
- Activities are designed to engage students and improve understanding of carbohydrate classification and lipid properties.
- Students participate in hands-on learning to solidify knowledge on carbohydrate structures and lipid functions.
Key Concepts of Fatty Acids
- Structural formulas for common fatty acids include:
- Lauric (C12), melting point 44°C
- Myristic (C14), melting point 53°C
- Palmitic (C16), melting point 63°C
- Stearic (C18), melting point 70°C
- Oleic (C18, unsaturated), melting point 16°C
- Linoleic (C18, unsaturated), melting point -5°C
Vitamins and Nutrients
- Fat-soluble vitamins:
- Vitamin A is crucial for healthy living.
- Understanding nutrient metabolism is vital for maintaining health.
Recap of Learning Points
- Polysaccharides, such as starch, glycogen, and cellulose, play different roles in energy storage and supply.
- Dietary balance is essential; excessive glucose intake may lead to health issues as it converts to glycogen or fat.
- Proper digestion relies on understanding how carbohydrates and lipids function in the body.
Post-Test Summary
- Reflect on knowledge acquired regarding carbohydrates, lipids, and their respective functions.
- Assess understanding of the material through a series of pre-test and post-test questions.
