Does DNA code for the enzymes necessary for the production of lipids and carbohydrates?

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.

Carbohydrates lipids and proteins is classified as?

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----->


What element is found in proteins but not in carbohydrates and lipids?

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


What macromolecules are found in living things?

Of nucleic acids carbohydrates proteins and lipids which do cells produce the most of and why?

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


Which bio-molecule doesn't have oxygen in their structure?

Lipids, carbohydrates, amino acids/proteins, and nucleotides/DNA all have oxygen atoms in their structures.


Which macromolecule is not a polymer?

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.


Does it take energy to make DNA?

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.
