Compare the structure of the four major biological macromolecules (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids) and explain how the distinct structure of each type of molecule enables it to carry out its particular function.
Compare the structure of the four major biological macromolecules (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids) and...
Compare and contrast the bonds involved in formation of macromolecules, including proteins, nucleic acids and carbohydrates, with those involved in formation of macromolecular assemblies of lipids, e.g. membranes.
1. List/describe similarities of proteins, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids. 2. Lipids are generally smaller than and don't have true monomers like the other 3 types of macromolecules; but how are they similar to proteins, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids?
Why are carbohydrates, lipids and nucleic acids not as functionally diverse as proteins?
Compare and contrast each of the four organic macromolecules: Carbohydrates, Lipids, Proteins, Nucleic Acids. Be sure to include the following:1) Explain how dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis work.2) What are the monomers of each of the 4 macromolecules?3) What are the polymers of each of the 4 macromolecules?4) Provide an example of each of the 4 macromolecules.5) What kinds of bonds hold the monomers together to make a polymer? Name the 4 special bonds.6) Give at least 2 functions of each...
Which of the following macronutrients are least hydrophilic? Lipids Carbohydrates Nucleic Acids Proteins
Match the macromolecule categories with their correct function: lipids, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, proteins functions: 1. energy source - cell markers 2. inheritance - protein synthesis 3. energy source - hormones - chemical signals 4. enzymes - channels - structural support

attempts left Check my work Select all that apply. Proteins vary widely in structure, whereas nucleic acids have rather uniform structures. How do you account for this major difference? Compared to proteins, which are made of up to 20 different amino acids, the composition of nucleic acids is considerably simpler. Proteins have many uses. Compared to nucleic acids, which are made up of many building blocks, the composition of proteins is considerably simpler. . Nucleic acids have many uses. A...
