Activity 2: 24 pts
Directions. Summarize your learning of the topic by drawing 3 examples of foods
rich in the following biological macromolecules (if there is none, write N/A). Write
also the elements found in the molecules and its function in sustaining nutrition to
our body. (6 pts each)
Biological Macromolecule: 1. Carbohydrates
Foods rich in Carbohydrates: (drawing)

Elements found in the molecule:

Carbon,Hydrogen,Oxygen

Function:
Carbohydrates serve several key functions in your body. They provide you with energy for
daily tasks and are the primary fuel source for your brain's high energy demands. Fiber is a
special type of carb that helps promote good digestive health and may lower your risk of
heart disease and diabetes.

Biological Macromolecule: 2. Protein

Foods rich in Proteins: (drawing)

Elements found in the molecule:

Carbon,Hydrogen,Oxygen,Nitrogen,Sulfur atoms,Phosporus atoms

Function:Protein has many roles in your body. It helps repair and build your body's
tissues, allows metabolic reactions to take place and coordinates bodily functions. In
addition to providing your body with a structural framework, proteins also maintain proper
pH and fluid balance

Biological Macromolecule: 3. Lipids

Foods rich in Lipids: (drawing)

Elements found in the molecule:

Carbon,Hydrogen,Oxygen,Phosporus,nitrogen,sulfur

Function:
Within the body, lipids function as an energy reserve, regulate hormones, transmit nerve
impulses, cushion vital organs, and transport fat-soluble nutrients. Fat in food serves as an
energy source with high caloric density, adds texture and taste, and contributes to satiety.

Biological Macromolecule: 4. Nucleic Acids

Foods rich in Nucleic Acids: (drawing)

Elements found in the molecule:

Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen; plus phosphorous

Function:Nucleic acid is an important class of macromolecules found in all cells and

viruses. The functions of nucleic acids have to do with the storage and expression of
genetic information. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) encodes the information the cell needs to
make proteins.
