WHAT I HAVE LEARNED

Directions: Write a brief description of the different types of carbohydrates inside
the graphical organizers.

MONOSACCHARIDES DISACCHARIDES POLYSACCHARIDES

Week 3 Day 3
OBJECTIVE
Describe lipid and differentiate the two classes of lipids (simple
and complex). S10MT-IVc-d-22.2.2b

WHAT’S IN

A lipid is any of various organic compounds that are insoluble in water.

They include fats, waxes, oils, hormones, and certain components of membranes and
function as energy-storage molecules and chemical messengers. Together with
proteins and carbohydrates, lipids are one of the principal structural components of
living cells.
 The key difference between simple and complex lipids is that simple lipids are
esters of fatty acids with alcohols and do not carry other molecules while
complex lipids are fatty acids with alcohols and other molecules such as
phosphates, nitrogenous base, etc.

jumbled letters written before the number. The jumbled letters correspond to the
correct answer. Write your answer on the blank.

Week 3 - Day 4

OBJECTIVE
Discuss the chemical nature of nucleic acid. (S10MT-IVc-d-22.2.2d)

WHAT’S IN

A nucleic acid is a chain of nucleotides which stores genetic information in

biological systems. It creates DNA and RNA, which store the information needed by
cells to create proteins. This information is stored in multiple sets of three
nucleotides, known as codons.
Nucleic acids are naturally occurring chemical compounds that serve as the
primary information-carrying molecules in cells. They play an especially important
 role in directing protein synthesis. The two main classes of nucleic acids are
deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA).
Nucleic acids are long chainlike molecules composed of a series of nearly
identical building blocks called nucleotides. Each nucleotide consists of a nitrogen-
containing aromatic base attached to a pentose (five-carbon) sugar, which is in turn
attached to a phosphate group.

WHAT’S NEW
Activity 1. Name Me!
Directions: Identify the parts of nucleic acid by writing the correct name inside the
box. Choose your answer from the word/s listed below.
Chromosome, Phosphate deoxyribose backbone, Double Helix

Activity 2. . Is It A Fact or A Bluff!
Directions: Read the sentences below. Write FACT if the sentence is true . If it is false,
write BLUFF.
___________ 1. Nucleic acid is a chain of nucleotides which stores genetic information in
biological systems.
__________ 2. Damage to DNA would cause cells and organisms to develop correctly.
__________ 3. When our cells join nucleotides together to form the polymers called nucleic
acids, it bonds them by replacing the oxygen molecule of the 3′ sugar of one nucleotide’s
backbone with the oxygen molecule of another nucleotide’s 5′ sugar.
___________ 4. DNA is the master blueprint for life and constitutes the genetic material in
all free-living organisms and most viruses.
__________ 5. Nucleic acids are molecules that do not allow organisms to transfer genetic
information from one generation to the next.
