Organic Chemistry
- Living things contains(and built out of) Hydrogen & Oxygen (Water–H2O) and Carbon
- All the organism on earth is Carbon-Based
Organic Molecule
- Compound that contains Carbon
- Organic Molecule are called Macromolecule or Biomolecule
Structure of Organic Compound
- The Structure of molecule influenced it’s function
- Straight Chain Molecule
- Branched Molecule
- Ring Molecule
Macromolecule
- Macromolecule (Polymer) are made up of repeating of identical (semi-identical) units(Monomer)
- Monomers are held together by covalent bond
Carbohydrates – C| H| O
- Monosaccharide => Disaccharide/Polysaccharide
- Function
- Storing ENergy
- Provide Structural Support
Lipid – C| H| O
- Fatty Acid & Glycerol => Triglyceride
- Function
- Storing Energy for long term
- Provide Barrier (Maintain Temperature)
Protein – C| H| O| N
- Amino Acid => Polypeptide
- Function
- Transport
- Structural Support
- Energy Source
- Hormone
- Forming Enzymes
Nucleic Acid – C| H| O| N| P
- Nucleotide => DNA & RNA
