Draw an aluminum atom
P=13
N=14
E=13
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
• Draw a Aluminum Atom – Protons: 13– Neutrons: 14– Electrons: 13
2.1 Atoms, Ions, and MoleculesSponge: Set up Cornell Notes on pg. 15
The topic or heading will always be at the top of the Powerpoint. Include the #
Ex: 2.3 Carbon Based Molecules
Essential Question:
Compare carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids
Don’t forget to add it to your T.O.Contents!
2.3 Carbon Based Molecules
Compare carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids
Key Concept:
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
KEY CONCEPTCarbon-based molecules are the foundation of life.
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
Objectives
1.h- Students know most macromolecules (polysaccharides, nucleic acids, proteins,
lipids) in cells and organisms are synthesized from a small collection of simple precursors
4.e- Students know proteins can differ from one another in the number and sequence of
amino acids
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
• Draw a Carbon Atom – Protons: 6– Neutrons: 6– Electrons: 6
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
• “The building block of life” -carbon atoms are the basis of most molecules that make up living things
• Carbon forms covalent bonds with up to four other atoms, including other carbon atoms.

2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
• Carbon-based molecules have three general types of structures.
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
Carbon chains can bond with carbon rings to form very large, very complex molecules called macromolecules.
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
• Many carbon-based molecules are made of many small subunits bonded together (like links in a chain)
– Monomers are the individual subunits. (mono=1)– Polymers are made of many monomers. (poly= +1)
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
Four main types of carbon-based molecules are found in living things.
• Carbohydrates are made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
Can you think of any foods that you eat that have carbohydrates “carbs” in them?
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
Two types of Carbohydrates:
– Monosaccharides are simple sugars (candy, jam, desserts)
– Polysaccharides include starches (cereals, bread, pasta, potatoes, and rice)
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
Hypothesize why we need Carbohydrates???
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
• Carbohydrates can be broken down to provide energy for cells.
• Some carbohydrates are part of cell structure.
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
• Lipids are molecules that include fats, oils, and cholesterol.
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
Many lipids contain carbon chains called fatty acids.– Fatty acids: chains of carbon atoms bonded to
hydrogen atoms
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
1) saturated fatty acids:
Most animal fats
Ex: milk, steak, eggs, butter
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
2) Unsaturated fatty acids:
Plant fat= oils “Good for you” fats
Ex: avocados, nuts, beans
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
Hypothesize why we need lipids???
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
– broken down as a source of energy– Store large amounts of chemical energy – make up cell membranes/structure
– used to make hormones
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
Proteins are polymers of amino acids. The specific sequence of amino acids determines the proteins structure and function
– Twenty different amino acids build proteins in organisms.
– Your body can make 12 of them, the rest comes from FOOD.
Carbon bonding four atoms together
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
What types of foods give us proteins?
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules

2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules

2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
Proteins are used for movement, eyesight,
and digestion.
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
• Nucleic acids biological molecules essential for life on Earth. Made of polymers of nucleotides.– *They have only one job: To work together to make
proteins
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
– DNA stores the information for putting amino acids together to make proteins, stores genetic information.
– RNA helps builds proteins.
DNA
RNA
2 Types of nucleic acids:
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
– Nucleotides are made of a sugar, phosphate group, and a nitrogen base.
A phosphate group nitrogen-containing molecule,called a base
deoxyribose (sugar)
2.3 Carbon-Based Molecules
1. What three things do our bodies use lipids for? Name three examples of lipids.
2. What three things do our bodies use proteins for? Name three examples of proteins.

• Broken down as energy• Make-up cell membrane• Used to make hormones
• Eyesight• digestion• movement
