Review of Biological Chemistry, including Carbohydrates (monosaccharides, disaccharides & polysaccharides) and Lipids (saturated & unsaturated fatty acids). Reference is made to 5-C monosaccharides (ribose & deoxyribose) & 6-C sugars (glucose, fructose & galactose and the concept of chemical isomers). Reference is made to disaccharides (sucrose, lactose & maltose and the concepts of dehydration synthesis reactions & hydrolysis reactions). Reference is made to polysaccharides [Amylose ("Starch"); Cellulose ("Insoluble Fiber"); Glycogen]. Comparison is made between properites of saturated fatty acids & unsaturated fatty acids and what are “hydrogenated vegetable oils”
