Global Survey Says We're Eating Better, But Our Diet Is Still?Unsustainable More people are eating local and organic foods, but that's not nearly enough. Jason Plotkin, owner of a small organic farm near Golden, Colorado, grapples with red, white, and golden beets he plans to sell at a farmers market. PHOTOGRAPH BY CYRUS MCCRIMMON, DENVER POST/GETTY Andrea Stone for?National Geographic PUBLISHED SEPTEMBER 29, 2014 More people are eating local and organic foods and plan to consume less meat and bottled water. However, most also believe they lack enough information and influence to become more environmentally sustainable consumers, a new National Geographic survey has found.

Campbell's Biology, 9e (Reece et al.) Chapter 5 The Structure and Function of Large Biological Molecules In Chapter 5, the principles of chemistry covered in earlier chapters are applied to the understanding of biological polymers and lipid membranes. The emphasis is on properly linking monomers and their polymers, and on the structural and functional diversity of the different polymer types. Particular attention is given to protein structure, because this is central to understanding subsequent chapters on metabolism, molecular biology, and molecular medicine. Multiple-Choice Questions 1) Humans and mice differ because A) their cells have different small organic molecules. B) their cells make different types of large biological molecules.

Chapter 4: Carbon and the Molecular Diversity of Life 4 Major Macromolecules: Lipids Carbohydrates Nucleic Acid Protein Lipids Fat- a combination of a glycerol and three fatty acids also called a triglyceride Used for long term energy storage, which is located in the long carbon chains Phospholipid- a combination of a glycerol, two fatty acids and a phosphate group Makes up cell membrane (lipid bilayer) Selectively permeable Hydrophilic heads (the phosphate group) Hydrophobic tails Steroid- lipids with a structure of four fused rings General Information Glycerol is combined to fatty acid by an ester linkage (dehydration synthesis) Ester linkage is polar CH2 groups are nonpolar Saturated Fat- a triglyceride with only single bonds

Excretory System Read Kraus pages 248 to 250. List the many different?functions of the skin: There are four different functions for the skin. The skin acts as a protective organ, meaning that the skin provides defense from mechanical injury and bacterial infections. How does the liver assist with excretion of nitrogenous?waste? The liver assists with the excretion of nitrogen waste. When humans eat food containing a surplus in protein, an excess of amino acid forms. Amino acid contains nitrogen. If the protein is not used to repair the body or help it grow, it is changed in the liver into nitrogenous waste and is secreted. This is why doctors warn about the excess consumption of foods like meat, fish, and eggs.

Name Period Chapter 5: The Structure and Function of Large Biological Molecules Concept 5.1 Macromolecules are polymers, built from monomers The large molecules of all living things fall into just four main classes. Name them. Circle the three classes that are called macromolecules. Define macromolecule. What is a polymer? What is a monomer? Monomers are connected in what type of reaction? What occurs in this reaction? Large molecules (polymers) are converted to monomers in what type of reaction? The root words of hydrolysis will be used many times to form other words you will learn this year. What does each root word mean? hydro? lysis Consider the following reaction: C6H12O6 + C6H12O6??C12H22O11
