Macromolecules

Macromolecules
-------------------


Condensation Reaction
   monomers join to make polymer
   -OH & -H join to make water

Depolymerization
   water molecules react with polymer to release monomer
   H2O split into -OH & -H

Dehydration: Water leaves
Hydrolysis: Water comes

Disaccharides
   Sucrose: Plants make by joining glucose & fructose. Fuel
   Lactose: Diary. Broken down into glucose & galactose
   Maltose: Beer. Broken down from starch (malthing). Yeast can break it down into glucose

Polysaccharides
   Storage
      Plants - Starch: found in choloroplast. compact grains w/energy. where plants make sugar by         photosynthesis
      Anmals - Glycogen: cells between other cell parts. compact grains w/energy.
   Structural
      Plant - Cellulose: cell wall. stiffens wall.
      Animal - chitin

Lipids: Energy storing. 2x as much storage as carb
Saturated Fats: solid. no double bonds
