polymers are a type of carbohydrate, but DNA is a type of nucleic acid and polypeptides are proteins
No. DNA codes for proteins, but not the lipids and carbohydrates and instruction for their use. All of this originates from diet and from thin air.
They are the four classes of biological molecules that all contain carbon. Carbohydrates include starches, sugars, cellulose, simple, and complex carbohydrates. Lipids include fats/oils, steroids, and waxes, which are functions too. Proteins include meat, nuts, dairy, eggs, and legumes. Nucleic acids include DNA and RNA, which are the polymers of nucleic acids. Carbohydrates are a major source of food energy and stored energy. Lipids----->
explain the general structure and functions of the major complex organic molecules that compose living organisms.
Lipids, carbohydrates, amino acids/proteins, and nucleotides/DNA all have oxygen atoms in their structures.
Lipids are macromolecules that aren't polymers, as their structure does not consist of a repeating chain of monomers. Proteins, carbohydrates and nucleic acids are all macromolecules and polymers.
Amino-acid based polymers such as proteins.
*carbohydrates *polymers *proteins *nucleic acids in short, all of the above.

None. They all have carbon and hydrogen in common. Proteins also contain nitrogen, but so do many lipids (for example phosphatidylcholine).

Cells produce the most proteins because they primarily make up the human body. All our phenotypes (traits) are expressed from DNA by proteins.

Yes, the assembly of all the biological macromolecules (DNA, RNA, proteins, complex carbohydrates) requires energy supplied from ATP to power the enzymes that perform the assembly.
