Catabolism of Proteins & Fats Lecture Materials

These are the Metabolism: Catabolism of Proteins & Fats Lecture materials of the Virtual Cell Biology Classroom. The resources below are used to supplement an actual college cell biology course. Anyone taking, teaching or interested in biology may find these materials helpful and is welcome to use them.

The Catabolism of Proteins & Fats Lecture materials include:

a list of learning objectives

a PowerPoint lecture

a homework assignment

"class note" articles

practice test questions

review questions

term paper metabolism assignment

links to additional educational resources

CATABOLISM OF PROTEINS & FATS LECTURE LEARNING OBJECTIVES

These lecture learning objectives are a study guide based on the VCBC Catabolism of Proteins & Fats Lecture PowerPoint:

What other main types of organic molecules go through the biochemichal pathways of cellular respiration?

How do protein molecules enter the catabolic biochemical pathways of aerobic respiration?

How must proteins be processed or changed in order to enter the pathways of aerobic respiration?

How do fat molecules enter the catabolic biochemical pathways of aerobic respiration?

How must fats be processed or changed in order to enter the pathways of aerobic respiration?

CATABOLISM OF PROTEINS & FATS LECTURE POWERPOINT

All of the lecture PowerPoints used in the Virtual Cell Biology Classroom have fill-in-the-blanks on many of the slides to encourage students to pay attention and follow along during the presentation. Instructors, contact us for the information that goes in the blanks.

HELPFUL TIPS: Some of the PowerPoint presentations are large files and may take a few moments to download, depending on the speed of your internet connection. If you are printing a hard copy of the PowerPoint, you can save paper by selecting Handouts (rather than Slides) in the "Print What:" drop down menu of the PPT print screen. Then you can choose the number of slides you want to have on each printed page. If the printed PPT presentation is to be used as student notes, it is best to choose handouts with 2 or 3 slides per page.

CATABOLISM OF PROTEINS & FATS HOMEWORK

Word document of a single essay question given to students at the end of lecture. This tool helps the students review the main messages of the lecture while allowing the instructor to assess the class' understanding of the material.

CATABOLISM OF PROTEINS & FATS CLASS NOTES

Here are brief summaries of some of the various subtopics and concepts introduced in this lecture, kind of like really good class notes.

What Is the Nucleotide Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)?

What Is a Lipid? Fats, Phospholipids, waxes & Steroids

What is a Proteins? Amino Acids & Peptide Bonds

CATABOLISM OF PROTEINS & FATS PRACTICE TEST QUESTIONS

Practice test questions designed to help you better understand the material from this lecture. They are based on information in the Catabolism of Proteins & Fats PowerPoint Lecture.

CATABOLISM OF PROTEINS & FATS REVIEW QUESTIONS

Questions designed to help you review the material in the Catabolism of Proteins & Fats Lecture.

METABOLISM PROJECT PAPER

Word document instructions for writing a paper on the relationship between metabolism and nutrition. Allows students to choose one of three options. The Calorie King website has a food database to help you with finding grams of carbohydrates, fiber, protein & fats of common food items, for Option 1 of this project.
