This Ask Dani is a follow up to a video I posted a couple weeks back on distinguishing the difference between emotional and physiological hunger.

The question is this:

If I am feeling hungry but am not physiologically hungry, how do I know what I’m real hungry for?

As I explain in the video, it’s not always easy to identify what we are feeling, so I have made a printable worksheet for you guys on feelings. Just click the link below and then scroll to the bottom of the page (under the video) to find two downloadable worksheets on feeling.

In this video we cover the uses of polysaccharides as energy stores and structural units. On the way we’ll look the use of glucose in respiration, and then how it can be stored in the form of starch and glycogen, revisiting glycosidic bonding and introducing amylose and amylopectin. Then we will cover the bonding in cellulose making microfibrils, then macrofibrils and pectins, all the while linking structure to function. As ever there’s an exam style question to solidify everything learnt.
