Proteins and carbohydrates have many functions in the body of an organism. Specific Proteins and carbohydrates perform specific tasks. Information about a protein and a carbohydrate is given.

How are ferritin and glycogen similar in their primary functions for an organism?

• Both store materials needed by the organism.

• Both store energy used by the organism.

• Both support the structure of the organism.

• Both store information for the organism.

What is the function of a Lipid?

• Stores energy (long term), forms cell membranes, carries messages

• Main source of energy, component of cell wall (cellulose, chitin), cell, signaling molecule on surface of cell membrane

• Protein channels = transport, helps cells keep their shape, makes up muscles, speeds up chemical reactions (enzymes), carries messages and materials

• Transmits Hereditary information
