Macromolecules that primarily function as chemical messengers, make up waterproof coverings, create biological membranes, and store energy long term.

What are lipids?

100

These are the bonds that hold water molecules together

What are hydrogen bonds?

100

All organic molecules contain this element.

What are carbon?

100

If a person ate pizza for lunch, which macromolecules did they eat? There is dough, tomato sauce, cheese and pepperoni in the pizza.

What are carbohydrates, lipids, and protein?

100

Macromolecules that have fatty acids as monomers and triglyceride as polymers.

What are lipids?

200

Macromolecules that primarily function as short term energy sources and structural support, like plant cell walls

What are carbohydrates?

200

Water resists changes in temperature by absorbing heat energy

What is high specific heat or high heat capacity?

200

This monomer looks like a 6-sided hexagon

What is a monosaccharide?

200

What type of macromolecule is an enzyme?

What is protein?

200

Macromolecules that have monosaccharides as monomers and polysaccharides as polymers.

What are carbohydrates?

300

Macromolecules that primarily function as structural support in humans and plants. This type of macromolecule makes up our muscles.

What are proteins?

300

the substance that is dissolves in solution

What is the solute?

300

Macromolecules that are shaped like the letter E and are made up of a glycerol and three fatty acids

What are lipids?

300

A macromolecule group that has saturated and unsaturated fats.

What are lipids?

300

Macromolecules that have amino acids as monomers and polypeptides as polymers.

What are proteins?

400

Macromolecules that transfer genetic codes.

What are nucleic acids?

400

these two properties of water make it possible for water to climb up the xylem of a plant

What are cohesion and adhesion?

400

The macromolecules that contain a phosphate group.

What are Nucleic Acids?

400

The monomer for DNA and RNA

What are nucleotides?

400

Macromolecules that have nucleotides as the monomers and DNA/RNA as polymers.

What are nucleic acids?

500

very large polymer, made up of smaller structural units called monomers

What are macromolecules?

500

this is why ice floats in water

What is density?

500

These macromolecules are made up of monomers called amino acids

What are proteins?

500

These macromolecules can be found in egg whites, walnuts, and milk.

What are proteins?

500

The macromolecule has starch as a polymer.

What are carbohydrates?
