BIOMOLECULES [WEEK 4, LESSON 3 | G. LANUZA] 😂😂 BRO, IS YOU ORGANIC??? BRO, IS YOU ORGANIC??? LMAOOOOOOOOOO 🫵😂 💀💀 😂😂 BRO, IS YOU ORGANIC??? LMAOOOOOOOOOO 🫵😂 💀💀 😂😂 Organic molecules - chemical compounds containing both carbon and hydrogen BRO, IS YOU ORGANIC??? LMAOOOOOOOOOO 🫵😂 💀💀 😂😂 Organic molecules - chemical compounds containing both carbon and hydrogen METHANE BRO, IS YOU ORGANIC??? LMAOOOOOOOOOO 🫵😂 💀💀 😂😂 Organic molecules - chemical compounds containing both carbon and hydrogen WATER METHANE Why is carbon so important in the structures of organic molecules? Why is carbon so important in the structures of organic molecules? Hint: Why is carbon so important in the structures of organic molecules? Hint: Take a look again at the structure of methane: Take a look again at the structure of methane: Take a look again at the structure of methane: 4 electrons, 4 covalent bonds Take a look again at the structure of methane: 4 electrons, 4 covalent bonds Allows for assembly into more complex molecules, such as chains, intricate branches, etc. Take a look again at the structure of methane: 4 electrons, 4 covalent bonds Allows for assembly into more complex molecules, such as chains, intricate branches, etc. Other important elements (not all are listed!): Other important elements (not all are listed!): oxygen nitrogen phosphorous hydrogen Other important elements (not all are listed!): oxygen nitrogen phosphorous hydrogen All organisms consist largely of the same 4 types of organic molecules: All organisms consist largely of the same 4 types of organic molecules: Carbohydrates Proteins Nucleic acids Lipids Monomer - small, single, molecular subunits Polymer - repeating patterns / chains of multiple monomers Monomer - small, single, molecular subunits Polymer - repeating patterns / chains of multiple monomers Monomer - small, single, molecular subunits Polymer - repeating patterns / chains of multiple monomers MONOMER Monomer - small, single, molecular subunits Polymer - repeating patterns / chains of multiple monomers MONOMER Monomer - small, single, molecular subunits Polymer - repeating patterns / chains of multiple monomers MONOMER naalala si ex Monomer - small, single, molecular subunits Polymer - repeating patterns / chains of multiple monomers MONOMER naalala si ex POLYMER MONOMER LEVEL CARBOHYDRATES - Simple sugars Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen Benzene Ring [5-6 Carbon Ring] Function: store energy MONOMER LEVEL MONOMER LEVEL MONOMER LEVEL MONOMER LEVEL PROTEINS - Amino Acids Amino group 𝛼 Carbon Hydrogen Atom Carboxyl group Variable side chain There’s a lot lol MONOMER LEVEL PROTEINS - Amino Acids Amino group 𝛼 Carbon Hydrogen Atom Carboxyl group Variable side chain There’s a lot lol MONOMER LEVEL PROTEINS - Amino Acids Amino Group 𝛼 Carbon Hydrogen Atom Carboxyl group Variable side chain There’s a lot lol MONOMER LEVEL MONOMER LEVEL MONOMER LEVEL MONOMER LEVEL NUCLEIC ACIDS - Nucleotides 5 carbon (pentose) sugar Deoxyribose in DNA, Ribose in RNA Phosphate group Nitrogenous base A, T/U, G, C MONOMER LEVEL MONOMER LEVEL The bases have their corresponding pairs A [adenine] - T [thymine] (in RNA, T is replaced by U [uracil]) - G [guanine] - C [cytosine] A and G - PURINES T [U] and C - PYRIMIDINES MONOMER LEVEL LIPIDS - ? They don’t have a single monomer unit Diverse and complex, no exact “building block” tama na muna lol
