Macromolecules include the DNA helix, RNA, hormones, enzymes, collegan to name a few!
Without these molecules life simply would not function.
Ever.
Cells as we understand them would be unable to reproduce with DNA and RNA, could not perform basic reactions without enzymes... I could go on!

Where is a macromolecule located in the body?
Macromolecules are large molecules. Macromolecules are found in the proteins, carbohydrates, nucleic acid, and lipids in the body. Macromolecules are essential to the structure and function of a cell.
What in the cell was breaks down macromolecules within the cell?
Lysosome, harbours hydrolytic enzymes that can work on & break down macromolecules like proteins etc into their monomers (amino acids) so that cells can reuse them.
Which is not a basic function of a cell A.Maintaining a stable external environment B.Making macromolecules for an organism C.Breaking down molecules D.Removing waste from the cell?
Answer this question… Maintaining a stable external environment
What are the 4 main categories of macromolecules in a cell?
Lipids carbohydrates proteins Nucleic Acids
What organelles transport substances throughtout cell cytoplasm?
The Golgi apparatus holds macromolecules and transports them to the cell membrane.
How does the structure of fatty acids compare to the basic units found in macromolecules?
why are fatty acids important to the cell membrane
What Synthesizes macromolecules in the cell?
cristae
What is the Golgi bodies do?
The Golgi apparatus/body is a lot like the warehouse of the cell. It takes in macromolecules that are formed in the cell and occasionally modifies them. Then it sorts the macromolecules and packages them for use within the cell or secretion out of the cell.
What is the function of a Lysosomes in a plant cell?
hydrolyzes the macromolecules
Where is a macromolecule located in the body?

Why does Organic Macromolecules Play An important Role In Human Biology?
Macromolecules have low molecular masses.
What type of macromolecules is the main component of cell membranes?
Phospholipids
This type of macromolecules is a component of the cell membrane that helps move molecules in and out of the cell?
Transmembrane Proteins
What macromolecules offer energy storage to the cell?
Carbohydrates and Fatty acids.
In a cell which organelle is responsible for packaging and transporting macromolecules?
golgi apparatus
Which organelle is responsible for packing and transporting macromolecules plant cell?
The Golgi
How do macromolecules get in and out of a cell?
They make a tiny little key and then distract the warder......
