5 CarbOhydrate O = rings

6 Biomolecules: Carbohydrate Biomolecule a complex, organic molecule present in living organisms which includes carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. Other names: Biomolecule, Macromolecule, Organic Molecule

7 The monomer of carbohydrates is a monosaccharide called glucose and makes up sugar. GLUCOSE Mono = one Saccharide = sugar

8 The monomer of carbohydrates is a monosaccharide called glucose and makes up sugar. Many glucose (sugar) molecules combine to make polysaccharides. Poly = many Saccharide = sugar

9 The monomer of carbohydrates is a monosaccharide called glucose and makes up sugar. Many glucose (sugar) molecules combine to make polysaccharides. Polysaccharides make up starches, pasta, rice, paper, and insect shells. *crunch*

10 The monomer of carbohydrates is a monosaccharide called glucose and makes up sugar. Many glucose (sugar) molecules combine to make polysaccharides. Polysaccharides make up starches, pasta, rice, paper, and insect shells.

11 The monomer of carbohydrates is a monosaccharide called glucose and makes up sugar. Many glucose (sugar) molecules combine to make polysaccharides. Polysaccharides make up starches, pasta, rice, paper, and insect shells. Carbohydrates are made of Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), and Oxygen (O). CARBO-hydrate C H 2 O

12 The monomer of carbohydrates is a monosaccharide called glucose and makes up sugar. Many glucose (sugar) molecules combine to make polysaccharides. Polysaccharides make up starches, pasta, rice, paper, and insect shells. Carbohydrates are made of Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), and Oxygen (O). Carbohydrates are burned in the body for short-term energy. GLUCOSE

13 The monomer of carbohydrates is a monosaccharide called glucose and makes up sugar. Many glucose (sugar) molecules combine to make polysaccharides. Polysaccharides make up starches, pasta, rice, paper, and insect shells. Carbohydrates are made of Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), and Oxygen (O). Carbohydrates are burned in the body for short-term energy. Polysaccharides burn longer than monosaccharides.

14 Monosaccharide Glucose/Fructose Disaccharide/ Polysaccharide Sucrose/Lactose Trisaccharide/ Polysaccharide Starch

15 Carbohydrate Cutout Activity Cut out each of the five hexagons and four rectangles. On each hexagon, write Glucose, Sugar, and Monosaccharide. On each rectangle, write Dehydration Synthesis. Paste or tape your hexagons together with the rectangles in between them.

16 Carbohydrate Cutout Activity As a class, let s all complete this sentence: This is a made from 5. It was formed by.
