Hr 2: Finish using models of macromolecules and digestion to understand that food molecules contain energy in the Carbon-Carbon bonds. Macromolecules are made up of monomers which are the basic building blocks of proteins, fats and carbohydrates. Macromolecules Understanding Check Hr 7: Lion vs Elephant Digestion Lab Students model the digestion and reassembly of proteins to calculate the net gain and release of energy from the reactions. Look at potato slices under the microscope to see the starch granules. Do Now: Be ready to name the three MACROmolecules.
