![Page 37: Focus on: u Elements in each molecule u How molecules are linked and unlinked u Examples and functions of each type of molecule](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56649e2e5503460f94b1e148/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

![Page 39: Focus on: u Elements in each molecule u How molecules are linked and unlinked u Examples and functions of each type of molecule](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56649e2e5503460f94b1e148/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Saturated FatsUnsaturated Fats
Saturated - no double bonds. Unsaturated - one or more
C=C bonds. Can accept more Hydrogens.
Double bonds cause “kinks” in the molecule’s shape.
![Page 40: Focus on: u Elements in each molecule u How molecules are linked and unlinked u Examples and functions of each type of molecule](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56649e2e5503460f94b1e148/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
![Page 41: Focus on: u Elements in each molecule u How molecules are linked and unlinked u Examples and functions of each type of molecule](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56649e2e5503460f94b1e148/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Question
Why do fats usually contain saturated fatty acids and oils usually contain unsaturated fatty acids?
The double bond pushes the molecules apart, lowering the density, which lowers the melting point.
![Page 42: Focus on: u Elements in each molecule u How molecules are linked and unlinked u Examples and functions of each type of molecule](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56649e2e5503460f94b1e148/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Fats
Differ in which fatty acids are used.
Used for energy storage, cushions for organs, insulation.
![Page 43: Focus on: u Elements in each molecule u How molecules are linked and unlinked u Examples and functions of each type of molecule](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56649e2e5503460f94b1e148/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Question ?
Which has more energy, a kg of fat or a kg of starch?
Fat - there are more C-H bonds which provide more energy per mass.
![Page 44: Focus on: u Elements in each molecule u How molecules are linked and unlinked u Examples and functions of each type of molecule](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56649e2e5503460f94b1e148/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)

The third -OH of glycerol is joined to a phosphate containing molecule.
![Page 45: Focus on: u Elements in each molecule u How molecules are linked and unlinked u Examples and functions of each type of molecule](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110402/56649e2e5503460f94b1e148/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

Nucleic Acids
Polymers of nucleotides Nucleotides have three parts:
nitrogenous base pentose sugar phosphate

Nitrogenous Bases
Rings of C and N The N atoms tend to take up
H+ (base). Two types:
Pyrimidines (single ring) Purines (double rings)

Pentose Sugar
5-C sugar Ribose - RNA Deoxyribose – DNA RNA and DNA differ in a –
OH group on the 2nd carbon.

Nucleosides and Nucleotides
Nucleoside = base + sugar Nucleotide = base + sugar + Pi

DNA
Deoxyribonucleic Acid. Makes up genes. Genetic information
for life.

Ribonucleic Acid. Structure and protein
synthesis. Genetic information for a few
viruses only.
