Carbohydrate and Lipids Quiz

• What are carbohydrates made of?

  Carbon, hydrogen & oxygen
• starch 


  Storage form of glucose in plants

  
• Glycogen


  Stored in liver and muscles and can be converted into glucose if needed

  
• Cellulose


  present in the cell wall of a plant cell and helps maintain the shape of a plant

  
• Main function of carbohydrates

  • short term energy
  • long term energy storage
  • cell membrane markers
  • structural material
• Short term energy in carbohydrates

  • glucose is used by all of our cells to make ATP for energy through cellular respiration
• Long term energy storage in carbohydrates


  glycogen is stored in liver and muscles and can be converted into glucose when needed
• Cell membrane markers


  form receptors and identification tags/markers on the cell membrane
• Structural material


  plant cell walls are made of cellulose, cellulose are use as fiber to add bulk to waste
• Starch function

  Energy storage molecule in plants
• type of bonding

  Composed of glucose monomers that are joined together trough glycosidic bonds
