  • Carbohydrates
    are the major source of energy for the body.
  • carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen
    All carbohydrates contain
  • one
    "mono" which means
  • monosaccharide
    is the simplest sugar and the basic subunit of a carbohydrate.
  • glucose and fructose.
    The most common monosaccharides are
  • isomers
    Compounds with the same molecular formulas are called
  • glycogen
    Sometimes we eat too much, especially when we are tired, the excess glucose is stored in the liver as ________ for later use.
  • fructose
    Fruits like grapes, apple or atis contain a monosaccharide called _____ or fruit sugar
  • disaccharide
    teacher who mentioned one time in their class that the sugar we use to sweeten coffee is a
  • Condensation
    reaction is a reaction in which two molecules or parts of the same molecule combine.
  • Hydrolysis reaction
    occurs when the bond between monosaccharides is broken with the addition of a water molecule.
  • galactose and glucose
    Lactose is made up of a sugar called
  • lactase
    a specific enzyme, ____ is necessary to help break the bond between the two monosaccharides when lactose is digested.
  • "lactose intolerant"

    People who cannot digest milk products are called
  • polysaccharides
    wherein the food samples like sweet potato and ripe banana turned blue-black when stained with iodine solution. In their class discussion, these foods contain
  • many
    poly means
  • starch, glycogen, and cellulose.
    three common polysaccharides-
  • Starch
    is the chief storage form of carbohydrates in plants and the most important source of carbohydrate in human nutrition.
  • Glycogen
    is a polysaccharide that is similar to starch because it is also composed of alpha glucose units.
  • lipids
    that have the "job" of storing energy for later use.
  • fats and oils
    The most abundant of the lipids are the
  • lard and butter
    Examples of animal fats are
  • Steroids
    are another class of lipids whose molecules are composed of fused rings of atoms.
  • cholesterol.
    The most important steroid is
  • enzymes
    It is known as biological catalysts.
  • DNA replication.
    The process by which an identical copy of the original DNA is formed is called
  • monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides.
    Carbohydrates are classified into three subtypes:
  • Monosaccharide
    is the simplest sugar and the basic subunit of a carbohydrate.
  • one
    mono means
  • glucose and fructose.
    The most common monosaccharides are
  • C6H12O6
    Although both of these onosaccharides have the formula
  • carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acid

    what are the macromolecules in biomolecules
  • two
    Di means
  • sucrose, lactose, maltose
    give 3 types of disaccharides
  • Starch, Gylcogen, cellulose
    enumerate 3 types of polysaccharides
  • oil, fats, steroid
    give at least 3 kinds of lipids
  • sterol
    cholesterol aka
  • calorie
    heat energy in the body
  • protein
    building blocks of the cell body
  • lard and butter
    two examples of fats
