What foods do not contain macromolecules?
of the choices: proteins starches nucleotides lipids nucleotides are not macromolecules
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.
What foods are macromolecules?
"Biomolecules" is not a recognized term in biochemistry, rather a term such as organic molecules or macromolecules would be more appropriate. The simple answer is all foods have complex organic macromolecules such as lipids (fat), carbohydrates/sugars and protein in varying quantities and types.
Which element do all macromolecules have in common?
All macromolecules contain a monomer.
Which two macromolecules contain nitrogen?
Proteins and nucleic acids

What are the organic macromolecules that contain nitrogen?
Proteins and nucleic acids are organic macromolecules that contain nitrogen.
What are foods that have a high ratio of nutrients to calories?
All foods contain nutrition, but the type of nutrients depends on the type of food, for example meats contain proteins.
What are in peanuts that make it contain energy?
Energy in all foods comes from calories, which are in starches, fats and proteins. Peanuts contain a high percentage of fat, which is the source of most of their calories, or energy.
What calories means?
Calories are a measure of heat energy. Eating foods that contain calories allows your body to expend energy and to maintain body temperature. Excess calories are stored as fat.
What are calories from foods like sodas and ice cream called?
They are called "empty" calories because they contain little to no nutritional value at all.
What are foods that have calories but have no nutrients?
There are very few foods that have no nutrients whatsoever, but still have calories. More foods would fall into the range that they contain calories, but very little nutrients. These are known as "empty calories", meaning that they really do not help for the body. Some examples of these would be fried foods, refined sugars / starches, bleanced flours, and high-fat foods (like butter and lard).
What are nutrients dense foods?
Foods that do not follow nutrient density and contain less nutrients that calories. Ex. chocolate ice cream cookies cake
Which food contains the macromolecules needed to build muscles but does not contain the macromolecules that give energy quick?
Hamburger
Which foods contain energy?
Energy-dense foods tend to be processed foods with sugar and fat added to improve the taste. The result is more calories per ounce
Which macromolecules contain nitrogen?
Proteins and nucleic acids
