What is one consequence of eating
unhealthy food and being physically
inactive?
Objectives (write in cues section)
1. Describe why macromolecules are
important for living organisms.
2. List 4 types of macromolecules.
3. Compare the structures (struc.) and
functions (func.) of different (diff.) types
of macromolecules.
Where do we get our energy?
• Food = fuel
• Sun’s Energy 
Captured & stored by green plants 
Passed along in fruits & seeds to animals 
Animals eat other animals
Why do we need food?
• Provides energy for all of the body’s functions:
1) beating of the heart
2) elimination of wastes
3) transmission of electrical (elec.)
& chemical (chem.) signals in the nervous
system
Why do you care?
• Poor food choices, dietary habits, and physical
inactivity lead to:
- Cardiovascular disease (CVD)
- Obesity
- Diabetes
- Certain types of cancer (colon, etc)
• Need 40 different nutrients to
maintain good health
• Need a wide variety of foods
Macromolecules
Organic Nutrients = produced and made by
living things
AKA (also known as):
- Macronutrients
- Biomolecules
Latin Roots: (write in cues section of notes)
1) Macro = large
2) Bio = life
Monomer vs Polymer
• Monomer = one piece
•Latin Root: mono = one
• Polymer = many pieces
•Latin Roots: poly = many
4 Types of Macromolecules
1. Carbohydrates (aka Carbs)
2. Lipids (aka Fats)
3. Proteins
4. Nucleic Acids
CARBOHYDRATES
• Made up of only 3 elements: CHO
1. Carbon
2. Hydrogen
3. Oxygen
• Have a hexagonal shape
One ring = monosaccharide
(Latin Root: Mono = one)
Two saccharides (2 rings)
= disaccharide
(Latin Root: di = two)
String a bunch of monosaccharides together =
Polysaccharide
(Latin Root:
poly = many)
WHY ARE CARBOHYDRATES
IMPORTANT?
• Body’s major source of steady energy
• 50% (45 – 60%) of daily caloric intake
•Aids the body in removing fats
• Reduces blood cholesterol & blood
glucose
• Fiber decrease risk of colon cancer
WHAT FOODS CONTAIN
CARBOHYDRATES?
• AKA: Sugars & Starches
• Complex Carbohydrates
Food sources: breads, cereals, pastas, grains
• Dietary Fiber
Food Sources: oats, fruits, barley, legumes, wheat,
cereal, vegetables, and the skins of fruits
• Simple Sugars
Food Sources: milk, fruit, honey, cookies, candy
Lets make a foldable for review.

the blank sheet of paper.
Warm Up
Thursday September 5, 2013
1. List the elements found in
carbohydrates.
2. Draw a picture of a carbohydrate.
LIPIDS
• Contain 3 elements: CHO
1. Carbon
2. Hydrogen
3. Oxygen
• Forms a chain
Why are lipids important?
1. Storage of energy (2ndary source)
2. Satisfies appetite
3. Transports vitamins A, D, E, & K
4. Thermal insulation
5. Mechanical Protection (surrounds
vital organs)
6. Waterproofing (Ex: ear wax)
WHAT FOODS CONTAIN
LIPIDS?
AKA fats and oils
Types of Fats:
1. Unsaturated (good)
Food Sources (derived from plant products):
olives, peanuts, corn and canola oils
2. Saturated (bad)
Food Sources (derived from animal products):
meats, lard, cream, butter, cheese, and whole milk
3. Trans Fats
Food Sources: typically do not occur naturally in
plant or animal products

the blank sheet next to your carbohydrate foldable.
PROTEINS
Composed of 4 elements: CHON
1. Carbon
2. Hydrogen
3. Oxygen
4. Nitrogen
Amino Acid = building block of proteins
PROTEINS
There are 20 different amino acids
-11 are produced
by the body (nonessential)
- 9 are not made
by the body
(essential)
WHY ARE PROTEINS IMPORTANT?
1. Growth, maintenance, & repair of all body tissues
(muscles, blood, bones, internal organs, skin, hair,
& nails)
2. Needed in the synthesis of enzymes, hormones, and
antibodies
Note: Enzymes = proteins that regulate chemical
reactions in your body
Synthesis = to create
WHY ARE PROTEINS IMPORTANT?
3. Proteins form some of the entrances and exits through
the cell.
TOO MUCH PROTEIN?
Excess protein can:
1. Damage the kidneys
2. Increase calcium excretion
3. Affect bone health
4. Inhibit muscle growth
5. Inhibit endurance performance
Protein Food Sources
- Make up 25% (15-35)% of daily calories
-Include:
- All Meats:
- Beef
- Pork
- Poultry (chicken, turkey, duck)
- Fish (salmon, trout, flounder, etc)
- Seeds & Nuts
- Legumes/Beans (black, kidney, pinto, etc)
- Eggs
- Dairy products (milk, cheeses, yogurt)
***Lots of sources are high in saturated
fat***

1. What is another name for lipid?
2. What is an amino acid?
NUCLEIC ACIDS
Composed of 5 elements: CHON-P
1. Carbon
2. Hydrogen
3. Oxygen
4. Nitrogen
5. Phosporus
Nucleotide = building block of
nucleic acids
Why are NUCLEIC ACIDS Important?
• Make up genetic material (DNA and RNA)
• 4 types nucleic acids:
1. Adenine (A)
2. Guanine (G)
3. Cytosine (C)
4. Thymine (T)
WHY ARE NUCLEIC ACIDS
IMPORTANT?
1. Used to make
proteins
2. Carry heredity
information from
generation to
