1. Warm-Up – 5 min
2. Lesson – 30 min
3. Wrap-Up – 5 min
4. Cell Projects (due Fri.) – 20 min
3. Today’s Objectives
• I will identify and distinguish
between the four major groups of bio
(organic) molecules.
• I will articulate five key things about
lipids and proteins.
4. Warm-Up
1. What is the monomer of a nucleic acid?
2. What two organelles are related to
carbohydrates ?
3. This an example of a___________.
A. Sugar B. Protein C. Nucleic Acid
5. For each (bio) organic molecule, you
NEED to know 5 things!
1. AKA (other names): other names it can be
called
2. Monomer (building block): name of the
monomer
3. Purpose (what it does): job in our bodies
4. Examples: things that are that organic
molecule
5. Related organelles: what organelle it has to
do with
14. Purpose: What do proteins do?
• Some control the rate of reactions and
regulate cell processes.
• Some are used to form bones and
muscles.
• Others transport substances into or out of
cells to help fight diseases.
15. Proteins
• AKA: enzyme, polypeptide
• Monomer: Amino Acid
• Purpose: Do the work of the cell !!
16. Proteins
• AKA: enzyme, polypeptide
• Monomer: Amino Acid
• Purpose: Do the work of the cell !!
• Examples: enzymes, lactase,
hemoglobin, insulin (suffix ‘ase’)
