1 00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:15,300 Sorry, today I don't have my whiteboard with me, so I'm going to draw it on a piece of paper. 2 00:00:15,500 --> 00:00:16,739 Let's see if you can understand. 3 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:21,679 Okay, so the last day we started with carbohydrates and lipids. 4 00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:30,820 Today we continue with another one of the biomolecules, which are the proteins. 5 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:36,719 Okay, so what are the proteins? 6 00:00:36,719 --> 00:00:48,479 okay they are formed okay our outline okay they are formed by amino acids what 7 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:55,039 are amino acids are the basic units of the proteins okay so since they are the 8 00:00:55,039 --> 00:01:03,320 basic units we are going to on the line there are 20 amino acids I'm going to 9 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:10,120 short it out like that that form all the proteins okay these form all the proteins 10 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:19,560 they are not more nor less but 20 of them for all the proteins okay the functions of these proteins 11 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:29,480 functions okay there are three basic functions of proteins okay to see how important they are 12 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:40,819 Basically, the form structures, for example, we have our nails, they are made out of proteins, did you know? 13 00:01:41,700 --> 00:01:45,219 And the protein that make up the nails are the keratin. 14 00:01:48,069 --> 00:01:55,189 Maybe you have heard about it from some shampoos that has keratin, okay? 15 00:01:55,290 --> 00:01:58,290 But naturally, we have it in the nails, we have it on the hair. 16 00:01:58,290 --> 00:02:15,050 Also, they regulate metabolism. An example of these are enzymes that make really important reactions in our body. 17 00:02:15,810 --> 00:02:19,169 And also, they perform some biological functions. 18 00:02:23,689 --> 00:02:36,360 For example, the hemoglobin, which is the enzyme which is inside the red blood cell, and they carry the oxygen. 19 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:42,900 Okay, one thing about this amino acid is that there are some essential amino acids. 20 00:02:44,900 --> 00:02:46,680 This is important, okay? 21 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:55,780 They are essential amino acids that we cannot construct inside our body, 22 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,379 but we need to take it with the nutrients, with food. 23 00:02:59,900 --> 00:03:02,259 So, they are obtained from the diet. 24 00:03:05,030 --> 00:03:07,969 That means that we need to eat them in order to have them. 25 00:03:08,370 --> 00:03:15,569 Then another of the organic functions are the nucleic acids 26 00:03:15,569 --> 00:03:20,729 Yeah, these all are organic molecules 27 00:03:20,729 --> 00:03:22,289 I will tell you about them now 28 00:03:22,289 --> 00:03:25,270 Okay, nucleic acids 29 00:03:25,270 --> 00:03:29,469 They are formed by nucleotides 30 00:03:29,469 --> 00:03:33,599 They are formed by nucleotides 31 00:03:33,599 --> 00:03:36,340 This is the basic unit 32 00:03:36,340 --> 00:03:37,680 So we have the line 33 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,520 And there are two types 34 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:40,159 RNA 35 00:03:40,159 --> 00:03:43,460 And DNA 36 00:03:43,460 --> 00:03:47,759 Riboxirribonucleic acid 37 00:03:47,759 --> 00:03:49,960 Deoxyribonucleic acid 38 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:50,740 Okay 39 00:03:50,740 --> 00:03:54,620 And the functions of these two 40 00:03:54,620 --> 00:03:56,780 Because maybe you have heard about the DNA 41 00:03:56,780 --> 00:03:58,219 But not the RNA 42 00:03:58,219 --> 00:03:58,759 They are 43 00:03:58,759 --> 00:04:01,599 One helps the other 44 00:04:01,599 --> 00:04:02,039 Okay 45 00:04:02,039 --> 00:04:03,620 In our body 46 00:04:03,620 --> 00:04:07,340 Basically the function is to store the genetic information 47 00:04:07,340 --> 00:04:20,540 store the genetic information we have blue eyes or blonde hair for example and also they synthesize 48 00:04:20,540 --> 00:04:36,329 proteins they synthesize proteins okay both functions i hope you understand my writing please 49 00:04:36,329 --> 00:04:43,709 Now with the proteins, nucleic acid plus the carbohydrates and lipids 50 00:04:43,709 --> 00:04:48,629 As we wrote the other day, we're going to write that they are organic 51 00:04:48,629 --> 00:04:51,509 Okay, so we write 52 00:04:51,509 --> 00:05:00,709 We write organic for carbohydrates, lipids, protein and nucleic acids 53 00:05:00,709 --> 00:05:05,800 Now we start with the inorganic biomolecules 54 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:17,339 okay we have two inorganic biomolecules we have mineral salts and water okay what are mineral 55 00:05:17,339 --> 00:05:28,100 salts think a little bit about about them okay there are a most of them ions what are ions 56 00:05:28,100 --> 00:05:34,279 think about chemistry well yeah you should have learned about it okay they are electrically 57 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:43,100 charge, okay? Positive or negative, okay? So we have, for example, calcium. Do not copy this, 58 00:05:43,180 --> 00:05:50,180 okay? No, this is not. Calcium, for example, which is positive, or we have chloride, which is 59 00:05:50,180 --> 00:05:57,180 negative, okay? These are ions. As I say, don't copy this, okay? Now, what are the functions 60 00:05:57,180 --> 00:06:05,699 of these mineral salts, okay? The functions of these minerals are two types. They can be 61 00:06:05,699 --> 00:06:13,680 structural. For example, the calcium that we said before, we use it for the bones, to construct the 62 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:25,699 bones. Or they are regulatory, regulatory, because they are going to work on metabolic reaction. 63 00:06:25,699 --> 00:06:33,420 There are many ions that work on the metabolic reaction. 64 00:06:33,980 --> 00:06:41,879 Water, the most important inorganic biomolecule in our body, H2O, okay? 65 00:06:43,199 --> 00:06:48,980 As you already know, we are mostly made of water, okay? 66 00:06:49,420 --> 00:06:54,040 And we can say we're going to make a summary of the properties, okay? 67 00:06:54,040 --> 00:07:05,300 the function is a universal solvent, which means that it's going to dissolve things. 68 00:07:05,439 --> 00:07:10,300 For example, the mineral salts can be dissolved into water, okay? 69 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:14,379 And this is going to help with metabolic reactions, okay? 70 00:07:14,579 --> 00:07:22,019 Also, for transporting, if we want to transport something, for example, in blood, we use the 71 00:07:22,019 --> 00:07:24,439 plasma, which is mostly made of water. 72 00:07:24,439 --> 00:07:28,060 And also temperature regulation 73 00:07:28,060 --> 00:07:31,889 Temperature regulation 74 00:07:31,889 --> 00:07:35,389 Water is going to regulate 75 00:07:35,389 --> 00:07:38,269 Our temperature in our body 76 00:07:38,269 --> 00:07:39,769 It's very important this 77 00:07:39,769 --> 00:07:44,350 And these are the inorganic biomolecules 78 00:07:44,350 --> 00:07:45,829 And finally 79 00:07:45,829 --> 00:07:51,009 But not the less important 80 00:07:51,009 --> 00:07:53,110 Vitamins 81 00:07:53,110 --> 00:08:00,949 okay vitamins can be either organic or inorganic that's why we made it in another sections okay 82 00:08:00,949 --> 00:08:10,810 they are of a variety chemical composition okay we have a variety chemical composition 83 00:08:10,810 --> 00:08:20,329 and they are needed in small quantities so meaning that we don't need too much vitamin 84 00:08:20,329 --> 00:08:25,829 but just a little bit of them and are very important for our body okay there are two types 85 00:08:25,829 --> 00:08:41,399 Okay, we have the fat soluble and the water soluble, which means that some of them dissolve in fat, some of them dissolve in water. 86 00:08:42,179 --> 00:08:44,820 Okay, properties of each. 87 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,320 These fat soluble, they are stored in the liver. 88 00:08:53,919 --> 00:08:59,419 Okay, and for example, our vitamins A or D. 89 00:08:59,419 --> 00:09:06,759 so if we have too much of these proteins then we have a problem if we have too little of these 90 00:09:06,759 --> 00:09:14,440 proteins we have a problem too okay vitamin a is good for your eyes okay eat many carrots that 91 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:22,679 they have vitamin a and d okay it's good for your eyes okay a water soluble are not stored 92 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:27,139 So we need to take them all the time 93 00:09:27,139 --> 00:09:31,080 For example, B12 94 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,779 We call it folic acid, for example 95 00:09:34,779 --> 00:09:38,139 Or vitamin C, that is good in this time 96 00:09:38,139 --> 00:09:41,080 When you can get the flu, for example, or coronavirus 97 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,860 So it's good to have a lot of vitamin C in your body 98 00:09:44,860 --> 00:09:49,980 Remember that your outline finally has to look something like this 99 00:09:49,980 --> 00:09:57,100 okay so we will need to occupy the whole page that you have to write here organic here inorganic 100 00:09:57,100 --> 00:10:03,759 the vitamins apart okay and everything has to appear in your notebook
