examples of polysaccharides | starch, cellulose, glycogen |
examples of monosaccharides | glucose, fructose, ribose |
examples of disaccharides | sucrose, maltose, lactose |
what are the sub units of carbohydrates | monosaccharides |
what are the bonds present in carbohydrates | glycosidic |
what are the sub units of lipids | fatty acids and glycerol |
what are the bonds present in lipids | ester |
what are the sub units of proteins | amino acids |
what are the bonds present in proteins | peptide |
the 2 monosaccharides of maltose are? | alpha glucose and alpha glucose |
the 2 monosaccharides of lactose are? | alpha glucose and galactose |
the 2 monosaccharides of sucrose are? | alpha glucose and fructose |
the bonds of the monosaccharides for maltose is? | 1-4 glycosidic linkage |
the bonds of the monosaccharides for lactose is? | B - 1 - 4 glycosidic linkage |
the bonds of the monosaccharides for sucrose is? | a-1, b-2 glycosidic linkage |
what are polysaccharides? | long chains of many monosaccharides joined together by glycosidic bonds |
what are common polysaccharides? | amylose, amylopectin, glycogen and cellulose |
describe the structure of cellulose | it is formed in a condensation reaction, it is made out of beta glucose with 1 -4 glycosidic bonds, every other beta glucose molecule is inverted |
why are some of the beta glucoses that make up cellulose inverted? | prevents the cellulose from coiling, because cellulose chains are straight, many chains run parrallel to each other (now called microfibrils |
what do the hydrogen bonds form between in cellulose structure | between the O and H of the nearby hydroxl groups |
why are the hydrogen bonds important. | The hydrogen bonds form cross-links betweens chains next to each other, while each individual H bond is weak, many thousands of H bonds collectively make cellulose very strong |
