Structure of cellulose

•Beta glucose molecules join together through condensation reactions to form long straight chains


every other beta glucose molecules rotates 180 degrees to allow OH groups on carbon 1 and 4 to be adjacent to each other to form a glycosidic bond


•several chains of cellulose are joined together in layers; these chains are held together by the formation of hydrogen bonds formed between OH groups


•Hundreds of these chains are then held together by hydrogen bonds to form microfibrils


•microfibrils form hydrogen bonds between other microfibrils and together form a cellulose fibre


•cellulose fibres are woven to form cellulose cell wall


•the large numbers of hydrogen bonds in the structure makes it extremely strong

Structure of starch

•Important characteristic of starch = insoluble


-does it affect osmosis (presence of starch on solution will not lower water potential causing unwanted movement of water)


-does not diffuse



Starch comes in two forms Amylase and Amylopectin

Amylose

•Long and straight chains of alpha glucose which coil into a helix


•Carbon 1:4


•this structure is compact so is good for storage

Monomer units which carbohydrates are composed?

Monosaccharides

Amylopectin

•Branched chain of alpha glucose molecules


•Carbon 1:4 and carbon 1:6 links


•This provides a large surface area for rapid hydrolysis of enzymes

Structure of glycogen

Similar to starch however:


-storter chains


-more highly branched


-larger surface area



•stored in muscles and liver


more short chains lead to glycogen being more readily hydrolysed into glucose


•Like starch, glycogen is insoluble so does so does not affect water potential or diffuse out of cells

Test for carbohydrates


Reducing sugar

1. Add Benedicts solution to sample


2. Heat to 95 degrees (C)


3. Colour change: blue--> green/yellow/orange/red (presence of reducing sugar)


4.No change = there could be a non-reducing sugar present

Draw the basic structure of alpha glucose

Draw the structure of beta glucose

Draw a diagram to show how two alpha glucose are joined by a condensation reaction

What happens during a condensation reaction?

•two monosaccharides join together. This forms a disaccharide


•the reaction occurs between the OH groups on carbon 4 of one of the monosaccharide and carbon 1 on the other monosaccharides


•the reaction produces one molecule of H2O


•the bond which forms between the two monosaccharides is called a glycosidic bond

What is molecule is produced in a condensation reaction?

H2O

Chemical equation for a condensation reaction

C6H12O6 + C6H12O6 ----> C12H22O11 + H2O
