What elements are present in organic macromolecules?
Molecules of carbons are known as orgains. Since carbon is the main atom of carbohydrates, proteins and other macromolecules they are said to be organic. There is no in organic macromolecules exist in our cell.
Protons of an atom are found only?
Protons of an atom are found only in its nucleus.
Where is the proton found in atom?
where is proton in atom
Is proton not found in the nucleus of an atom?
No, the proton is only found in the nucleus of an atom, not elsewhere.
What can be found in an atom's nucleus?
The nucleus can be found in the center of an atom. The electrons can be found in the 'surface' if an atom is considered to be a sphere.
What atom is common in carbohydrates lipids proteins and nucleic acids?
Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen
The four major groups of organic compounds?
Carbohydrates, Lipids, Proteins and Nucleic Acids.
What are the four main parts of carbon based molecules in organisms?
Carbon has four electrons in its valence shell (outershell). Since this energy shell can hold eight electrons, each carbon atom can share electrons with up to four different atoms. Carbon can combine with other elements as well as with itself. This allows carbon to form many different compounds of varying size and shape. Proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates and lipids
What substance is the key of life?
Water is undoubtedly the key of life. It is an essential biological solvent, and a crucial component of body fluids, enzymes, and hormones. The structure of lipids, proteins and carbohydrates is dependent on water.
What elements are present in organic macromolecules?
Molecules of carbons are known as orgains. Since carbon is the main atom of carbohydrates, proteins and other macromolecules they are said to be organic. There is no in organic macromolecules exist in our cell.
What is the difference between carbohydrates and lipids?
Carbohydrates like sugars are poly alcohols while lipids are esters. Carbohydrates contain more oxygen compared to lipids. carbohydrates have much chemical energy compared to lipids.Carbohydrates are 6-carbon rings while lipids are multi-carbon chainsCarbohydrates are water soluble while lipids are not water solubleCarbohydrates provide 4 calories per gram while lipids provide 9 calories per gram
What Acid molecules are long chains of carbon atom found in lipids?
They are fatty acids; they are attached to a glycerol molecule to form a lipid.
If the number of proteins changes in an atom does it remain the same type of atom?
Proteins are far larger than atoms. There are no proteins small enough to fit inside an atom.
What biological molecule will not mix with water?
Lipids
What is a chemical containing carbon hydrogen and oxygen?
It is made up of one carbon atom , two oxygen atoms, and one hydrogen atom. The carbon atom is double bonded to one oxygen atom and single bonded to the other, which is in turn bonded to the hydrogen.
Define amine group?
An amine group is formed by a nitrogen atom and a pair of hydrogen atoms. These are found in the amino acids of proteins.
Each atom in a lipids fatty acid chain is joined to another carbon atom by a single bond?
saturation (:
