Document Summary
Apply appropriate terminology to describe carbohydrates, without. Convert a cyclized monosaccharide between fischer and haworth. Describe how monosaccharides are joined to make polysaccharides. Compare the structure of polysaccharides used for energy storage. Describe the difference between dietary fibre and carbohydrates used. Give examples of the major roles played by carbs in biological systems for energy metabolism. In class question; muffin has the most calories. A lot of fat in the whole grain muffin. Naming system based on the prefix (number) and suffix (ose) which. Four different things the middle carbon is bonded too, this is termed the chiral carbon. Two ways you can orient the the chiral carbon around enantiomers with each other; mirror images but cannot superimpose (biologically different molecules) Assume that horizontal lines are coming out at you and vertical lines go back from you; fischer projections 2d plane.
