How do fats differ from proteins nucleic acids and polysaccharides?

DNA is considered as the genetic material . I guess it has adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine and proteins are made up of amino acids and the fats contain fatty acids and glycerol

How are nucleic acids and proteins related?
Nucleic acids make proteins.
What do polysaccharides ( such as glycogen ) nucleic acids ( such DNA ) and proteins ( such as collagen ) have in common?
All three are carbon based compounds.
What are the four macromolecule groups?
The Four Macromolecule groups: * Polysaccharides (carbohydrates) * Proteins * Lipids * Nucleic acids have fun
Do proteins encode nucleic acids?
No. Nucleic acids encode proteins.
Dehydration synthesis forms what macromolecule?
Removal of water (dehydration synthesis is used in forming lipids, polysaccharides, proteins, and nucleic acids.
The four main categories of large biological molecules?
CARBOHYDRATES, NUCLEIC ACID,LIPIDS, AND PROTEIN
What are four classes of polymers found in living things?
They are Nucleic acid - from cells, Proteins - translated from genes, lipids - from proteins and carbohydrates - from proteins.

No. Nucleic acids encode proteins.
What are the four macromolecules of life?
The four major macromolecules are proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acids.
Which element is found in nucleic acids but not in proteins?
phosphorus is present in nucleic acids and not in proteins
Dehydration synthesis forms what macromolecule?
Removal of water (dehydration synthesis is used in forming lipids, polysaccharides, proteins, and nucleic acids.
What do proteins nucleic acids and carbohydrates all have in common?
They are all organic compounds, that is they contain carbon. They all contain hydrogen and oxygen too. Proteins and nucleic acids additionally have nitrogen, and nucleic acids have phosphorus. In addition, proteins, nucleic acids and polysaccharides like starch (but not simple sugars) are macromolecules.
What are the 4 main categories of macromolecules in a cell?
Lipids carbohydrates proteins Nucleic Acids
What are the types of organic compounds?
Carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, and proteins.
