    LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

    1. Define Biological Macromolecules


    2. Enumerate four classes of
    Biological Macromolecules
    3. Determine the properties and
    functions of different Biological
    Macromolecules
    What is the importance
    of foods in human body?
    Biological
    Macromolecule
    Biological
    Macromolecules are large
    molecules that is
    necessary for life.
    All biological macro-
    molecule are made up of
    a small number of
    elements.
    Macromolecu
    le
    Polymer
    What do these words mean?
    A very, very large
    molecule
    There are four classes of biological
    macromolecules we will be looking at:
    Proteins
    Lipids
    Carbohydrates
    Nucleic acids
    ALL four can be found in
    food!!

    Think about it!!


    Look at the label to the left.
    3 of the 4 macromolecules
    are labeled!!

    Biological
    Macromolecul
    e Carbohydrates
    They are the main source
    of energy for the body.
    CARBOHYDRATES

    THERE ARE 2 TYPES OF


    CARBOHYDRATES
    Simple Complex
    - Monosaccharide - Polysaccharide
    - Disaccharide
    Simple Carbohydrates/ Simple Sugar

     made up of 1 or 2
    monomers.
    They also taste sweet.
    Simple Carbohydrates/ Simple Sugar
    Complex Carbohydrates/Complex Sugar

    polymers made up of many


    monomers.
    Most also taste starchy.
    Complex Carbohydrates/Complex Sugar
    CARBOHYDRATES

    Chitin
    The hard outer
    shell of shrimp,
    lobsters, and
    many insects is
    made of chitin
    CARBOHYDRATES

    Cellulose
    Provide
    structure to
    plant cell wall.
    Biological
    Macromolecul
    eLipids/Fats
    LIPIDS

    They INSULATE the


    body to maintain
    normal body
    temperature and they
    CUSHION the internal
    organs for protection.
    LIPIDS
    •Fruits produce a
    waxy coating to
    keep from drying
    out.
    • The cells in a
    tulip make a wax
    which helps coat
    the leaves.
    LIPIDS
    •Ear wax traps dust, sand, and
    other foreign particles from going
    deeper into the ear and causing
    damage.
    LIPIDS – Foods that contain Fat
    Biological
    Macromolecul
    Proteins
    e
    PROTEINS

    They are the major


    structural molecules in
    living things for growth
    and repair.
    PROTEINS
    Proteins
    Hair, Skin,
    and Nails
    Safe Laboratory Practices
    - No food or drinks during activity
    - Wear your PPE and Laboratory
    attire
    - Stay focus and aware on your
    surroundings
    - Participate in safety exercise
