Proteins
These are the building blocks of proteins
Amino acids
This kind of Lipid makes up the cell membrane
Phospholipid
This sugar is the primary energy source for cells
Glucose
These nucleic acids carry genetic information in living organisms
DNA and RNA
This protein in red blood cells transports oxygen through the body
Hemoglobin
What are the role of Lipids for producing energy
Long term energy
Plants store carbs in this polysaccharide form
Starch
The monomers of nucleic acids are called this
Nucleotides
These proteins speed up chemical processes in organisms.
Enzymes
These lipids are normally solid at room temp
Saturated fats
Carbs are usually made out of these three elements
carbon, hydrogen and oxygen
DNA's shape is usually held in this structure
double helix
When a protein loses its shape due to heat or PH changes
Denaturation
What makes Lipid polymers different from other macromolecules
Their monomers are non-repeating
Carbs are used by Cells for this when producing energy
Short term, immediate energy
What is RNA used for
Creation of ribosomes and proteins
