Which characteristics make proteins the most versatile macromolecules in cells in terms of functional capabilities?
Proteins have diverse structures, diverse chemical properties, and flexible shapes.
Which macromolecules provides the most amount of energy per gram?
proteins.
Most macromolecules are made up of thousands of smaller molecules called?
Monomers.
Why are proteins among the most diverse macromolecules?
Proteins are made of long chains of molecules called amino acids. There are 21 different amino acids, resulting in almost endless possibilities. The sequence, the length, and the folding structure are all easily varied in proteins. By comparison, carbohydrates and lipids have few variations in structure or make-up.
What category of macromolecules are enzymes classified as?
Most enzymes are classified as proteins. However, there are some enzymes that are not classified as proteins such as ribozymes (nucleic acids) and vitamins (coenzymes).

What is the most elaborate and diverse of all life molecules?
Proteins (composed of amino acids)
What is the name for large molecules made up of smaller molecules?
The general term for very large molecules is "macromolecules". There are special terms for different specific types of macromolecules, like "polymers" or "proteins", and most people studying them specialize in one or another specific type.
What are the organic macromolecules in different types of foods?
Foods contain proteins, carbohydrates and lipids which are three different types of macromolecules. However, there are far more than three types of macromolecules, some of which are also found in food.
