What type of molecule of the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen usually 2 to 1 in lipid protein carbohydrate or glycerol?

All sugars (carbohydrate) have this ratio:CH2O so the H:O ratio is2:1
In proteines however there is (in mean values) less oxygen and more nitrogen:
C1.0H1.8O0.5N0.2 , so H to O ratio is 3.6 to 1
Glycerol is C3H8O3 so the H:O ratio is 8:3 (2.7 : 1)
In most lipids (triacyl glycerides) there are only 6 O atoms to Cn+3 and H2n+1 with n usually more than12 , sothe H:O ratio is more than 4:1

Protein-carbohydrate compounds are called?
Protein= (CHON) carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. Carbohydrates= (CHO) carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
Is CHO a carbohydrate lipid protein or nucleic acid?
lipid, its fat. Its Lipoprotein or we can say Protein-lipid, a combination of protein and lipid.
What type of organic molecule is lactase?
Lactose is a carbohydrate and is an organic compound.
What kind of macromolecule is glycerol?
Protein
Is enzyme organic or inorganic?
An enzyme is a protein and has many carbon hydrogen bonds, so it is an organic molecule.
Is sugar an incomplete protein?
Sugar is not a protein. It is a carbohydrate. A sugar molecule can be used as a building block of a protein but it is not a protein.
Protein-carbohydrate compounds are called?
Protein= (CHON) carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. Carbohydrates= (CHO) carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
Is a protein molecule and example of a carbohydrate?
No...proteins are proteins and carbohydrates are carbohydrates. A carbohydrate can be a sugar but doesnt have to be...it can be a starch also
What is a protein molecule with a smaller carbohydrate covalently bonded to it?
I think its called a glycoprotein
Is cellulase a carbohydrate or a protein?
Cellulase is an enzyme that break down celluse a complex organic molecule into simpler molecule like glucose and as such being an enzyme, it is also protein in nature.
What chemical family is lipase?
Lipase is an enzyme that breaks lipid molecules down into a glycerol molecule and fatty acids. It is a protein.
What element is included in every protein molecule?
carbon hydrogen and oxygen
Is CHO a carbohydrate lipid protein or nucleic acid?
lipid, its fat. Its Lipoprotein or we can say Protein-lipid, a combination of protein and lipid.
If organism compound contains only the elements carbon hydrogen and oxygen could this compound be a carbohydrate could it be a protein?
It could be a carbohydrate. It couldn't be a protein because proteins also contain nitrogen.
The number of ATPs that can be produced from a molecule of protein fat or carbohydrate is generally related to the number of atoms of?
hydogen
What type of organic molecule is lactase?
Lactose is a carbohydrate and is an organic compound.
Is hydrogen fuel for body cells?
No, body cells cannot use hydrogen on its own as a fuel. It needs to be included in a carbohydrate such as sugar, protein or fats.
