C, H, O and sometimes P (phospholipid)

Triglycerides- 1 glycerol (backbone) and three fatty acid chains. 
Saturated- completely covered hydrogen (single), solid at room temp.
Unsaturated- double bonds, liquid at room temp

Steroids- fused ring structures]]> 2020-10-13 20:12:36 UTC https://padlet.com/1272716/bt9wkrnb8fvo33kt/wish/826543875 Are proteins always in chains, or can they be in rings? What about nucleic acids? 335717 https://padlet.com/1272716/bt9wkrnb8fvo33kt/wish/826543970
Amino acid- side chain, could have ring structure

Primary structure- chain of amino acids

Secondary and Tertiary- alpha (corkscrews), beta (sheets), 3D shape

quaternary structure- protein subunits (tertiary), join 4 together]]> 2020-10-13 20:12:39 UTC https://padlet.com/1272716/bt9wkrnb8fvo33kt/wish/826543970 When water goes up a tree is that both cohesion and adhesion? https://padlet.com/1272716/bt9wkrnb8fvo33kt/wish/826547130 YES

Cohesion- water to water
Adhesion- water to other surfaces

Water potential- draw up against gravity]]> 2020-10-13 20:13:52 UTC https://padlet.com/1272716/bt9wkrnb8fvo33kt/wish/826547130 Is there a mnemonic or something to help remember the atoms in each macromolecule? https://padlet.com/1272716/bt9wkrnb8fvo33kt/wish/826548384 Carbs- CHO
Lipids- CHO (P)
Nucleic Acids CHONP
Proteins- CHONPS

Based on adenine (nucleotides)

ATP- 3 phosphates (cellular energy)

ADP- 2 phosphates
Pi ]]> 2020-10-13 20:14:33 UTC https://padlet.com/1272716/bt9wkrnb8fvo33kt/wish/826548868 Are monosaccharides and disaccharides always in rings but polysaccharides are in chains? e_ecbreen https://padlet.com/1272716/bt9wkrnb8fvo33kt/wish/826548905
Monosaccharides- can be chains but usually as ring 

Disaccharides- ring structure connected to another ring structure

Polysaccharides- chain of ring structures]]> 2020-10-13 20:14:34 UTC https://padlet.com/1272716/bt9wkrnb8fvo33kt/wish/826548905 What is ATP and ADP for nucleic acids? 335717 https://padlet.com/1272716/bt9wkrnb8fvo33kt/wish/826549840 Based on your nucleotides, adenine as a base. 

GTP- guanine as the base]]> 2020-10-13 20:14:57 UTC https://padlet.com/1272716/bt9wkrnb8fvo33kt/wish/826549840 Do nucleotides contain lipids? https://padlet.com/1272716/bt9wkrnb8fvo33kt/wish/826550281 Nope

Phosphate group, 5 carbon sugar, nitrogen containing base]]> 2020-10-13 20:15:07 UTC https://padlet.com/1272716/bt9wkrnb8fvo33kt/wish/826550281 Are polymers made up of only one type of monomer or is there a variety? https://padlet.com/1272716/bt9wkrnb8fvo33kt/wish/826552942 One type

carbs are going to make carbs

amino acids make proteins]]> 2020-10-13 20:16:10 UTC https://padlet.com/1272716/bt9wkrnb8fvo33kt/wish/826552942
