In the Harry Potter series, Professor Snape teaches this subject, where students mix biological ingredients in cauldrons—much like conducting chemical reactions in a biology lab.
Potions
Animals store excess sugar energy in the body using this complex polysaccharide.

Unlike most other macromolecules, lipids generally do not mix well with this substance.
Water
Proteins can have up to this many levels of structural organization to maintain their specific shape.
4
This type of complex carbohydrate cannot be digested by the body and does not spike blood glucose levels.
