macromolecules by chloe sharp

Living organisms rely on large molecules known as macromolecules, which include nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates, each playing a crucial role in biological processes. Nucleic acids like DNA and RNA store and transmit genetic information essential for protein synthesis.
