Proteins are the large molecules that are made up of Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen and sulphur. Carbon, Hydrogen and oxygen are chiefly present in all the biomolecules. But the proteins contain sulphur as their one of the components, as DNA have Phosphorus as one of their important component. Two amino acids, Methionine and Cysteine, contain sulphur in their side chain. When these amino acids are incorporated in the proteins, sulphur is added to the proteins. Sulphur present in cysteine, as a thiol group, play a crucial role in the stability of the proteins as they form disulphide bonds.
Apart from that, two polysaccharides also contain sulphur. Chondroitin -4- Sulphate is a polymer of repeating unit of Glucuronic acid and NAcetylGalactosamine that is sulphated at the fourth carbon. The other polysaccharide is Kertan Sulphate. It has repeating units of Galactose and NAcetylGlucosamine sulphated at 6th carbon.

Large molecules made of carbon and hydrogen atoms?
This type of molecule is called macromolecule.
What element is best able to combine with itself and hydrogen to form large molecules?
Carbon because Carbon is a common element contains in organic things. It contains a lot of atoms to form large molecules with Hydrogen and other elements as well...
A molecule of pentane is made of 5 carbon atoms and 12 hydrogen atoms. A collection of pentane molecules has 3.01 x 1024 carbon atoms. How many hydrogen atoms are in the collection?
7,224.10e24. hydrogen atoms
Lipid molecules that have the maximum number of hydrogen atoms possible are referred to as unsaturated?
No. Lipid molecules that are unsaturated have less hydrogen atoms because of carbon-carbon double bonds.
What molecules are synthesized from carbon skeletons bonded to hydrogen atoms?
organic

Do hydrocarbon molecules always contain hydrogen carbon and oxygen atoms?
No.Hydrocarbon molecules contain hydrogen and carbon atoms.It is carbohydrate molecules that contain hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen atoms.
Organic molecules are formed with?
carbon atoms, hydrogen atoms, hydroxide atoms

How many number of hydrogen and oxygen atoms in three molecules of carbon dioxide?
there is no hydrogen in carbon dioxide. since carbon dioxide is CO2 there are 3 carbon and 6 oxygen atoms in three molecules.
How many hydrogen and carbon atoms are made in 5 molecules of carbon dioxide?
5 molecules of carbon dioxide will contain 5 carbon atoms (1 per molecule) and no hydrogen atoms as carbon dioxide contains only carbon and oxygen. The 5 molecules will contain a total of 10 oxygen atoms (2 per molecule).
How many carbon atoms and hydrogen molecules would be required to make two molecules of methane?
Well methane has a chemical structure of CH4 (one carbon surrounded by 4 hydrogen atoms), so for 2 methane you would need a total of 2 carbon atoms and 8 hydrogen atoms (or 4 H2 molecules)

7,224.10e24. hydrogen atoms
Lipid molecules that have the maximum number of hydrogen atoms possible are referred to as unsaturated?
No. Lipid molecules that are unsaturated have less hydrogen atoms because of carbon-carbon double bonds.

Carbohydrates are molecules with Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen atoms.
What is carbonhydrate made of?
Molecules containing carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms
What molecules are synthesized from carbon skeletons bonded to hydrogen atoms?
organic
