Carbohydrates Cellulose Glucose Starch Glycogen

CELLULOSE

 a polysaccharide (C6H10O5)x of glucose units that constitutes the chief part of the cell walls of plants, occurs naturally in such fibrous products as cotton and kapok, and is the raw material of many manufactured goods (as paper, rayon, and cellophane)

GLUCOSE

 a crystalline sugar C6H12O6; specifically :  the sweet colorless soluble dextrorotatory form that occurs widely in nature and is the usual form in which carbohydrate is assimilated by animals

STARCH

a white odorless tasteless granular or powdery complex carbohydrate (C6H10O5)x that is the chief storage form of carbohydrate in plants, is an important foodstuff, and is used also in adhesives and sizes, in laundering, and in pharmacy and medicine

GLYCOGEN

:  a white amorphous tasteless polysaccharide (C6H10O5)x that is the principal form in which glucose is stored in animal tissues and especially muscle and liver tissue

Proteins Insulin Enzymes Hemoglobin

INSULIN

 a protein pancreatic hormone secreted by the beta cells of the islets of Langerhans that is essential especially for the metabolism of carbohydrates and the regulation of glucose levels in the blood and that when insufficiently produced results in diabetes mellitus

a substance that your body makes and uses to turn sugar into energy

ENZYMES

any of numerous complex proteins that are produced by living cells and catalyze specific biochemical reactions at body temperatures

HEMOGLOBIN

  an iron-containing respiratory pigment of vertebrate red blood cells that consists of a globin composed of four subunits each of which is linked to a heme molecule, that functions in oxygen transport to the tissues after conversion to oxygenated form in the gills or lungs, and that assists in carbon dioxide transport back to the gills or lungs after surrender of its oxygen

: the part of blood that contains iron, carries oxygen through the body, and gives blood its red color

Lipids Phospholipids Steroids

PHOSPHOLIPIDS

any of numerous lipids (as lecithins and phosphatidylethanolamines) in which phosphoric acid as well as a fatty acid is esterified to glycerol and which are found in all living cells and in the bilayers of cell membranes

STEROIDS

 any of various chemical compounds that include many hormones (as anabolic steroids)

Nucleic Acids DNA RNA

DNA

any of various nucleic acids that are usually the molecular basis of heredity, are constructed of a double helix held together by hydrogen bonds between purine and pyrimidine bases which project inward from two chains containing alternate links of deoxyribose and phosphate, and that in eukaryotes are localized chiefly in cell nuclei

DNA

Nitrogen Bases A- Adenine T-Thymine G- Guanine C- Cytosine

DNA PAIRING

A-T G-C

RNA

 a substance in the cells of plants and animals that helps make proteins

any of various nucleic acids that contain ribose and uracil as structural components and are associated with the control of cellular chemical activities — Types MESSENGER RNA, RIBOSOMAL RNA, TRANSFER RNA

RNA

Nitrogen Bases Adenine

Uracil (no T)
