Proteins
Proteins (polypeptides) are made from building blocks called amino acids. There are 22 types of amino acids! Eating a wide variety of foods is important to make sure your body is getting all essential amino acids.
14
The Many Forms of Macromolecules
Monomer = a single building block or subunit
Dimer = 2 building blocks (subunits) linked
Polymer = many building blocks (subunits) linked

Metabolism
The web of all enzyme-catalyzed reactions in a cell or organism.
Metabolic reactions help macromolecules change between their monomer, dimer, and polymer forms
18
Metabolism = Anabolism + Catabolism
Anabolic reactions add simple molecules together to make complex molecules
Anabolism relies on condensation reactions
19
Metabolism = Anabolism + Catabolism
Catabolic reactions break complex molecules apart to make simple molecules
Catabolism relies on hydrolysis reactions
