within and between cells.,Saturated(top and middle)and unsaturated(bottom)fatty acids.The term saturated refers to the saturation of the molecule by hydrogen atoms.The presence of a double C=C

condensation(dehydration)of the amino end of one amino acid and the acid end of the other amino acid.The above image is from.,Structure of a protein:primary,secondary,tertiary,and quaternary levels of structure.,Nucleic acids,核酸,The,polymers,多聚物 composed of,monomer,单体 units known as,nucleotides,核苷酸.,The main functions of nucleotides are information storage(DNA),protein synthesis(RNA),and energy transfers(ATP and NAD).,Nucleotides,Consist of a sugar,a nitrogenous base,and a phosphate.,The sugars are either ribose or deoxyribose,脱氧核糖.,Both are pentoses usually in a ring form.,There are five nitrogenous bases.Purines(,嘌呤,Adenine and Guanine)are double-ring structures,while pyrimidines(,嘧啶,Cytosine,Thymine and Uracil)are single-ringed.,Deoxyribonucleic acid,(DNA),The physical carrier of inheritance for 99%of living organisms.,The bases in DNA are C,G,A and T.,Changes in DNA information will be translated into changes in the,primary structure,of a polypeptide,and from there to the,secondary,and,tertiary,structures.,Mutation,:change in the DNA base sequence.,Most are harmful,and a very few are beneficial and contribute the organisms reproductive success.,The wellspring of variation by,natural selection,.,Structure of a segment of a DNA double helix.,Ribonucleic acid(RNA),Occurs in the nucleus as well as in the cytoplasm,DNA,with exceptions in chloroplasts and mitochondria,is restricted to the nucleus(in eukaryotes,the,nucleoid,region in prokaryotes).,Three types of RNA:,Messenger RNA(mRNA),:the blueprint for construction of a protein.,Ribosomal RNA(rRNA),:the construction site where the protein is made.,Transfer RNA(tRNA),:the truck delivering the proper amino acid to the site,Structure of a RNA

mitochondrial membrane.,Involves both chemical and transport processes.Drops in the potential energy of electrons moving down the ETS chain occur at three points.These points turn out to be where ADP+P are converted into ATP.Potential energy is captured by ADP and stored in the pyrophosphate bond.NADH enters the ETS chain at the beginning,yielding 3 ATP per NADH.FADH,2,enters at Co-Q,producing
