whats wrong dys ;_;

QUESTION 3
explain the differences btwn a carbohydrate, a lipid, and a protein. include basic descriptions, the number of calories they give off when burnt, and the basic molecular overview.

Points for ourself and not the teams?
:'D

@ Colours : You totally should if they come out as cute as that. ;] <3

@ Shanny : Oh. Whoops. xDD;; Sorry about that. 8D;;

*high fives NumNum and Shanny*

Lolz. Late high five. 8D;;

OMG guys. Mom says I have to get off the computer ;_;

yayyy~ <3

explain the differences btwn a carbohydrate, a lipid, and a protein. include basic descriptions, the number of calories they give off when burnt, and the basic molecular overview.

all of them are macromolecules
carb: (CH2O)n
sugars?
like glucose? O: ( C6H12O6 )

awww ): red team will get +1 as a handicap ;_;

TEAM POINTS

yellow 5 points
red 5 points
blue 1 point

is kent and hads still playing?

XD this is so entertaining

Carbohydrate: major source of energy, contains elements C, H, and O, 4kcal per gram, simple sugars are their building blocks, can come in monosaccarides, disaccarides, and more.

Lipid: fats and oils, contains C, H, and O. 9kcal per gram, insoluble in water, triglyceride, three chains

Protein: contains elements C, O, and H, source of energy, substrates for tissue growth and maintenance, enzyme molecules, amino acids are their building blocks, 4kcal per gram

This feels too much like homework! ;o; I'm sorry everyone! I don't know if I can do this! I want something more fun to do...

A carb is a major calorie source that comes mainly from sugars. A lipid is a fatty substance/molecule. Proteins are molecules required for structure, function, and regulation of the body's cells, tissues, and organs.

No clue about the burning thing...O___o;

I JUST LEARNED THIS!
*hits head*
Why...can't I remember?
D;

OMG, BYE PLATTY. ]:
<333333333

Carbohydrates - Major source of energy for the body. Made up of mostly Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. They give off an average of 4 calories per gram.

Protein - Made of Oxygen, Hydrogen, and Nitrogen. They are starter materials for tissue growth and certain biological functions. They supply an average of 4 calories per gram.

Lipids - Fats and oils. Mostly made up of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. They have fewer oxygens than Carbohydrates, however. They average 9 calories per gram.

swanniee, why wasn't my answer accepted?
o 3o
Ah wells.
Thankies for the shinies!!

Carbohydrates are made up of monosaccharide units (ie glucose, galactose & fructose). They are important in the transport of energy, storage and maintaining structural components in both plants and animals. They have the basic (CH2O)n molecular structure. They contain 3.75 kcal per gram.

Lipids are important for storage and are made up of various fatty acids. Lipids contain 9 kcal per gram.

Proteins are composed of amino acids and are important in DNA synthesis, enzyme activity and are structural components in cell membranes. Proteins contain 4 kcal per gram.

OMG. I'm too late. D: I passed 5 mins. ;_;

It's okay RyeRye. <3333

I...uhh...tried?
D:

We should get away from science questions...I don't get science, so these are killing my brain.
]:

I learned this last year.
-Gasp-

OTL I was past the time limit!

I was typing, then I was about to post, but saw that it was already past 5 mins. x_x;;

Sorry, Shanny. D:

And aww, NumNum! :< *huggles*

And yeah, science questions are HARD. x_x;;

The time limit is horrifying.
No one can make a complete answer in five minutes.
-Gasp-

I understand RyeRye. ^^ <3333

Yeah...they are.
I'm just bummed, because I had this stuff just like, a few weeks ago in Bio.
We even made models and stuff...

I just...can't remember science.
I hate it, and it hates me right back.
D<

ox Makes it more interesting though.
O:

oops i pressed submit by accident *A* ;;
/adds~

Lipids are insoluble in water but in nonpolar solvents they are soluble
gives twice as much energy compared to carbs and are important for cell membranes
the bond is COO (one double bond and a single bond)


protien is important for:
enzymes and hormones as an example
also its our muscle and used as antibodies O:
They have amide link ( CONH )

carbs have an Oxygen atom connecting two monosaccharide together~ (it usually has 5 or 6 carbon in a ring and has OH group at each carbon)

that is all from me DX

For this question, I agree with ox. There were too many variables to consider. x_x;; This question killed me. D:

ox: answer for what? o:
kent: okiedokie, guess hads not playing as wel? +2 for blue

+2 ox, +2 blue
dys and pix made it too, +1 them, +2 yellow

PERSONAL POINTS

ox 4 point
simp 3 point
hads 1 point
pix 3 point
dys 3 point
lynne 2 point
CC 1 point
pc 1 point

TEAM POINTS

yellow 7 points
red 5 points
blue 5 point

Which is why I had commas instead of periods.
xDD

Sorry if it couldn't be understood.

@swannie
Nevermind, my mistake there.
xDD

Am I only by myself here?
o 3o

OTL i finished too late XD;
