Test your Biomolecule Skills! 1. The monomer of carbohydrates are ________saccharides and the important one that is made in photosynthesis is called glucose and has a molecular formula of ________________. 2. When 5 glucose molecules are connected, how many water molecules are formed? What is the molecular formula? ________________________ This is a (mono, di, poly) saccharide. 3. Draw a glycerol molecule. What is the molecular formula? Draw a fatty acid with the molecular formula C4H8O2 next to it. 4. Draw the fat molecule with the molecular formula C15H20O6. Is it saturated or unsaturated? 5. The monomer of proteins are called ___________ acids. The part that is different between amino acids is the __________________. 6. If you are connecting 7 amino acids together, you are forming _____ peptide bonds meaning _____ water molecules will be lost. If you wanted to break this protein apart into separate amino acids, how many water molecules would you need to put back in? ______ 7. Enzymes are an important type of which biomolecule class? __________________________ 8. Draw the amino acid Valine C5H11O2N. (Hint: In the R group, two of the carbons are attached to 3 hydrogens). 9.
