Macromolecule that provides quick energy and ends in -ose
What is a carbohydrate
Monomer of lipids
What is the fatty acid chain
The bodies ability to maintain a stable internal environment separate from external sources.
What is homeostasis
Natural elements (4)
What is carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen (CHON)
This macromolecule is made up of amino acids and is essential for enzymes, hormones, rebuilding, and structure.
What is a protein
Chain of monomers linked together
