1.3 Introduction to Macromolecules continued

 

3D Model of a Protein Molecule

Today's Learning Objective(s):

Describe the properties of the monomers and the type of bonds that connect the monomers in biological macromolecules.

Tasks:

1	Think about it… Why is water essential in building and breaking up macromolecules?  Be sure to answer the question through Nearpod.   Nearpod S648B
2	Macromolecules Students are to complete the table comparing the four major classifications of biological molecules.  Table of Four Major Macromolecule Classifications Use the textbook to find the needed information 3.2 Carbohydrates 3.3 Lipids 3.4 Proteins  3.5 Nucleic Acids
3	Comparing Macromolecules Structure and Function  Students receive a large sheet of paper with four quadrants. Students are to look at each group looking at the chemical characteristics (functional groups) and list them on the chart.
4	Sharing Ideas Students are to point out major differences that they saw in comparing the macromolecules
5	Notes - Properties of Macromolecules  Add notes to the notebook. The teacher goes over the major functions and structures of the four groups.   Nearpod S648B
6	Examining the Functional Groups of Amino Acids  Students are to receive and review the twenty-amino acids chart. They are to identify the functional groups among amino acids.  Amino Acids Chart 20 Common Amino Acids
7	MCQ 1.3 Introduction to Macromolecules Let’s answer the questions on AP Classroom  1.3 MCQs
