PPT-carbohydrates H.B.2A.1 Construct explanations of how the structures of carbohydrates,

Carbohydrates Are the most common type of organic compound Examples Starch or sugar Is used to store energy Are built in repeating units to make a larger molecule Contain only carbon hydrogen and oxygen. Lipids are….. It can be defined as . nonpolar. organic compound insoluble in polar solvent , but . soluble in organic solvents. such as benzene ,ether, . chloroform.. Biological role of lipids. :. Chapter 29. 2. Lipids. are . biomolecules. that are soluble in organic solvents.. The identity of lipids is defined on the basis of a physical property and not by the presence of a particular functional group.. Lipids. Essential . macronutrients. Provide . energy. Building blocks for cell membranes. Form many important hormones. Help transport fat-soluble nutrients. Contribute to flavor and texture of . food. Lipids are relatively insoluble in water.. They are soluble in . nonpolar. solvents such as chloroform , diethyl ether, acetone, benzene and ether.. The hydrophobic (water hating) nature of lipids is due to the predominance of hydrocarbon chain.(-CH2-CH2-CH2-) in their structure. Dr. Huda Hania. Lipid chemistry . Lipid chemistry . Definition .

Lipids. – . 9 calories per gram. Protein. Vitamins. Minerals. Water. LIPIDS. Most . concentrated. source of food energy. Provide . 3.4 What Are Lipids?. Lipids. are a diverse group of molecules that contain regions composed almost entirely of hydrogen and carbon. All lipids contain large chains of nonpolar hydrocarbons. Most lipids are therefore hydrophobic and water insoluble. Learning Objectives. Learn what a triglyceride is.. Learn what a fatty acid is.. Learn the structure of a . phospholipid. .. Learn how lipids are tested for.. What is a lipid?. Like most other biochemical substances, lipids contain . Pratt & . Cornely. , . Ch. 8. Lipids and Membranes. There is a lot of important biochemistry of lipids.. We won’t cover it all!. The key points for this class have to do with their role in membranes and fat metabolism. Structures of fatty acids.

Rich in hydrocarbon. Polar group (usually small). Oleic acid. Lipids serve a wide variety of functions. Vitamin K. Surfactants. Protection. Membrane. components. Insulation. Energy storage. What are the main classes of . lipids?. Where are they found in the cell?. Where did they come from?. Lipids Classes. Fatty acids. Free (toxic unless esterified). Esterifed. in . glycerophospholipids. SIMPLE & COMPLEX.. They are called carbohydrates because, at the chemical level, they contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.. Unlike essential amino acids and fatty acids, there are no essential carbohydrates. This means we can obtain everything we need nutritionally from other food sources, so carbs are not necessary to maintain life.. are a large and diverse group of naturally occurring organic compounds that share some general . properties. .. General Properties of Lipids. Insoluble . in water.. Soluble in non-polar organic solvents .
