Lipids tend to be large, single molecules with no obvious repeating pattern. They are very important as macromolecules in the life sciences. Polymers which are repeating chains of monomers include carbohydrates, proteins and nucleic acids.
Lipids are macromolecules that do not repeat.
Ester linkages formed through dehydration
Carbohydrates, Proteins and Nucleic Acids are polymers that repeat
Cabohydrate glycosidic linkages formed through dehydration.
What else can I help you with?
Which of the major types of biological molecules does NOT consist of monomers and polymers?
The major type of biological molecules that does not consist of monomers and polymers are Lipids. Although triglycerides are created by the combination of similar molecules, others, steroids, are not.
What is the monomers and polymers of lipids?
Lipids do not have monomers and they themselves are the polymer
What are four classes of polymers found in living things?
Four classes of polymers found in living things are proteins, nucleic acids, polysaccharides, and lipids. These polymers play essential roles in various biological processes such as structure, storage, and energy production in living organisms.
Do lipids have monomers or polymers?
Lipids are not polymers but are macromolecules. So we cannot speak of monomers and polymers of lipids.Lipids are triglycerides, the simplest form being formed by a condensation reaction between a molecule of glycerol (which has 3 -OH groups) and 3 fatty acids.
Why don't lipids have monomers?
Lipids do not have monomers because they are made up of diverse molecules like fatty acids, glycerol, and other components, rather than repeating units like monomers found in polymers.
What are the polymers of lipids?
The polymers of lipids are simply its monomers (fatty acids and glycerol) connected
Why can lipids not be considered polymers?
Lipids cannot be considered polymers because they do not consist of repeating monomer units like true polymers do. Lipids are a diverse group of molecules that include fats, oils, and waxes, and they do not exhibit the characteristic structure of polymers.
What nmacromolecule is not organized in repeating units of monomers?
That are the lipids. They have fatty acids and glucerols
Which biological macromolecule, such as lipids, is not considered a polymer?
Lipids are not considered polymers.
Do lipids form long chain polymers like carbohydrates and proteins?
Lipids do not form polymers.
What is the polymer of lipids?
Fatty Acids are the polymers or building blocks of lipids
Are fats polymers or monomers?
Polymers, they are lipids which are long carbon chains
Are lipids true polymers, or do they have a different chemical structure?
Lipids are not considered true polymers because they do not have a repeating chain of monomers like proteins or nucleic acids. Lipids have a different chemical structure, typically consisting of fatty acids and glycerol.
What is the polymer of a lipid?
Fatty Acids are the polymers or building blocks of lipids
What is the relationship between lipids and their monomer and polymer structures?
Lipids are made up of monomers called fatty acids, which are the building blocks of lipids. When fatty acids combine, they form polymers known as triglycerides or phospholipids. These polymers make up the structure of lipids and play a crucial role in their functions in the body.
Why aren't lipids polymers yet proteins are?
because proteins have amino acids.
What are the names of the polymers of lipids?
the scientific name is hypobinkofel but in our terminology it is thisisfakeidiot cheers ;)
