Quarter 3

Week 3-4

Direction: Analyze each question carefully then choose the letter of the correct answer.

1. Which of the following is NOT a major source of protein?

A. fish B. egg C. milk D. vegetable

2. Which of the following contains the most lipids?

A. Banana B. champorado C. olive oil D. cheese

3. Which of the following is a correct pair?

A. glucose: disaccharide C. starch: polysaccharide

B. sucrose: monosaccharide D. triglyceride: polysaccharide

4. Which is a correct pair of an example of protein and its function?

A. enzymes: speed up reactions in the body and eventually used up in the process.

B. collagen: provides strength and flexibility to connective tissues.

C. actin and myosin: supplies amino acids to baby mammals

D. hemoglobin: helps regulate blood sugar levels

5. Which of the biomolecules contain other elements aside from carbon,

hydrogen, and oxygen?

A. carbohydrates, lipids C. nucleic acids, proteins

B. proteins, lipids D. nucleic acids, lipids

Learning Task 2. Let’s Categorize!

On a separate sheet of paper, given the structural formula, complete the table by providing the needed
information regarding the different biomolecules.

Biomolecule Building Blocks Classification or Structural Formula/ Model

Types

Nucleic Acid Nucleotide DNA

(Deoxyribonucleic
Acid), RNA
(Ribonucleic Acid)

Lipids Glycerol/Fatty acids Triglycerides,

Phospholipids,
Steroid

Carbohydrates Monosaccharides Monosaccharides,

(Simple Sugar) Disaccharides,
Oligosaccharides,
Polysaccharides

Protein Amino acid Primary Structure,

Secondary Structure,
Tertiary Structure
Learning Task 3. Fats have the highest concentration of calories

On the sample Nutrition Facts label, the serving size of this food is 1 cup and there are 2 servings in this
container. There are 260 calories per serving of this food. If you eat the entire container of this product,
you will eat 2 servings. That means you double the calories. If you eat 2 servings, will you have eaten
over 500 calories? Explain your answer.

Yes, if you will eat 2 servings, you will have eaten over 500 calories. Since the product
provides two servings, and each serving contains 260 calories, 260 calories times 2 servings, you will
get a total of 520 calories.
Learning Task 4. Write THE LETTER OF YOUR ANSWER on the space before each number.

B 1. Nutritional chemists have found that burning 1 gram of fat releases twice the amount of heat
energy as burning 1 gram of starch. Based on this information, which type of biomolecule would cause a
person to gain more weight?

a. Carbohydrate b. fat c. proteins d. nucleic acid

C 2. Lipids are insoluble in water because lipid molecules are _________?

a. Hydrophilic b. Neutral c. hydrophobic d. Zwitterions

D 3. Which of the following groups are all classified as polysaccharide?

a. sucrose, glucose and fructose c. glycogen, sucrose and maltose

b. maltose, lactose and fructose d. glycogen, cellulose and starch

A 4. Amino acids are the building blocks of which group of biomolecules?

a. Proteins b. carbohydrates c. lipids d. nucleic acid

D 5. Which of the following is the major function of carbohydrates?

1. structural framework 2. storage 3. energy production

a. 1 only b. 2 only c. 3 only d. 1 & 3 only

B 6. In which organs are glycogen stored in the body?

a. liver and spleen c. liver and bile

b. liver and muscle d. liver and adipose tissue

C 7. Biomolecule containing carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

a. Proteins b. carbohydrates c. lipids d. nucleic acid

C 8. Aside from carbohydrates, another class of biomolecules that have the “job” of storing energy for
later use.

D 9. Biomolecules that code for hereditary traits by controlling the production of protein.

a. Proteins b. carbohydrates c. lipids d. nucleic acid

_____10. Based on the results in the test for starch (carbohydrates), which food samples tested
positive?

a. food samples 1, 2, & 4 c. food samples 1 & 2 only

b. food samples 3 & 5 d. all the food samples

_____11. Based on the results in the test for Reducing Sugar (carbohydrates), which food sample tested
negative?

a. food sample 1 c. food sample 2

b. food sample 3 d. food sample 5

For questions 12 -15 Using the illustrations below, identify the biomolecule.

C 12. Which illustration represents Carbohydrates?

D 13. Which illustration represents Proteins?

B 14. Which illustration represents Lipids?

A 15. Which illustration represents Nucleic acid?

VI. REFLECTION • The learner communicates the explanation the lesson using the prompts below.

I understand that biomolecules are organic molecules that include lipids, carbohydrates, nucleic acids,
and proteins.

I realize that biomolecules are essential to all living things. They are living because bio means life.
Biomolecules are important for functioning of living organisms.

I need to learn more about other scope of biomolecules such as how it performs important functions
in living organisms.
