Structures
ALL macromolecules contain these elements
Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen (C,H,O)
Macromolecules that primarily function as chemical messengers, make up waterproof coverings, create biological membranes, and store energy long term.
Lipids
What macromolecule makes up your muscles?
Proteins
What is an example of a carbohydrate?
.....
This is the only macromolecule that does not provide any energy when consumed.
Nucleic acids
What is the monomer of Lipids?
Fatty Acids
Macromolecules that primarily function as short term energy sources and structural support, like plant cell walls.
Carbohydrates
What macromolecule is stored in the nucleus of cells?
Nucleic Acids (DNA)
What are two examples of nucleic acids found in cells of living organisms?
DNA and RNA
These six elements are found in all living things.
SPONCH
Sulfur, Phosphorus, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Carbon, Hydrogen
The monomer of this macromolecule forms a ring structure
Carbohydrates
Macromolecules that primarily function as structural component of body tissues. There are thousands of different types of this macromolecule in our body.
Proteins
Part of the cell membrane, which is made out of lipids, is not water soluble. What is another word for "water fearing?"
Hydrophobic
What macromolecules can you get from eating bacon (two answers).
Protein and lipids
This reacts with an enzyme to create products.
Substrate.
What atoms make up Nucleic Acids?
CHONP (Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Phosphorus)
Macromolecules that store genetic material and considered to be the information center of the cell.
Nucleic Acids
Cell walls are only found in plant cells and provide structural support. What macromolecule makes up cell walls?
Carbohydrates
