What are biomolecules?
The class is too warm
What is an observation?
Long strands of repeating units of small molecules called monomers
What are polymers?
Proteins, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, lipids
What are the 4 main types of biomolecules?

What is a hypothesis?
Polymers of the 20 amino acid monomers
What is protein?
Molecules that require at least one carbon-hydrogen (C-H) bonds
What are organic molecules?
a comparison group that does not receive the treatment or intervention being tested.
What is a control group?
Proteins, Carbohydrates, and nucleic acids are not monomers but are
What are polymers?
Has up to 4 valence electrons in its outer orbit, allowing it to bond with up to 4 other atoms.
What is a Carbon Atom?
a collection of subjects or participants in an experiment who receive a specific intervention, drug, or variable being studied, allowing researchers to measure its effect on the outcome.
What is the treatmental group?
The more electrons opposite attract
What happens when the stronger molecule attracts?
Can be used to build a wide variety of complex molecules, more than any other elements
What is unique about Carbon?
any factor or condition that a scientist deliberately keeps unchanged or the same throughout an experiment
What is a constant factor?
Not polymers
Why are lipids differed?
