Penta's (based on shape of 5)
|
|||||
| Penta shapes ( geometrically pentagon) are vital for the development and existence of more complex Hydro-Carbon Biologics. | ||||||
| There are essentially two types of Penta's | ||||||
|
||||||
| 8.13.1 | Close packed Penta's | |||||
| Close packed Penta's are essentially constructed by plants. They are also the basis for our fossil fuels (which are based on decomposed plant based structures). | ||||||
| Close packed Penta's cannot be manufactured by animals. | ||||||
| However, they are the essential building blocks for a host of important roles including: o nucleic acid (the chemical building blocks of DNA) o neuropeptides o chemical combinations as attachments to amino acid tags (the basis of proteins). | ||||||
| 8.7.2 | Loose packed Penta's | |||||
| Loose packed Penta's are essentially the super-simple sugars, which are the second most common organic "levers" used by all animals (next to simple Tri levers used for connecting amino acids). Loose packed Penta's are used for a host of roles, including o the connection of nucleic acids o connecting fatty acids together to form triglycerides (the basis of cell membranes). | ||||||
