macro molecules

Nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA, are essential macromolecules composed of nucleotides. These acids store and transmit hereditary information and consist of elements like carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus.

macro molecules

Tennant: Macro-molecules

Nucleic acids: their monomer are nucleotides

we would not exist without Nucleic acid
functions:store & transmit hereditary information
examples:RNA (ribonucleic acid) DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)
Composed of Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Phosphorus.

protein: formed by amino acids.

their shape determines their function
hormones movement immune system enzymes Transport
Composed of Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, and Nitrogen.
muscle fingernails, claws skin Hair enzymes hormones

Lipids: Their monomers is triglycerides.

non-polar
Subtopic
composed of: carbon hydrogen and oxygen
stores energy, protects organs, and insulates the body.
Fats Oils phospholipids Steroids Waxes

Carbohydrates: Their monomer is Monosaccaride.

We get carbs from all of the food we eat.
Examples include, sugars, starches, cellulose, and glycogen.
Composed of carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen.
Their functions include, Giving and storing quick energy, and giving structure to our cells.
