Represented by strong lines in chemical structures. Hydrogen Bonds: Muchweaker Formed between two atoms Usually hydrogen... Slight positive charge... And another atom... Usually oxygen or nitrogen... Slight negative charge. Easily made and broken inside cells Represented by dotted lines in chemical structures. 1 of 3 Carbohydrates Carbohydrates Only contain CARBON, HYDROGEN and OXYGEN. INCLUDES monomers, dimers and polymers. 2 of 3 Monosaccharides Monosaccharides Formula = CH2On n can equal 3 - 7 Most common is glucose. in animals is the main transport of sugar in the blood. concentration is carefully controlled many isomers of glucose - galactose and fructose. 3 of 3
