What chemical element is present in proteins and nucleic acids but not sugars and fats?
Phosphorus complexes are present in proteins but is not present in sugars or fats..
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.
Which parts of the human body that contain nitrogen?
Most of the nitrogen in your body is contained within proteins and most of the protein in your body is contained within the muscles.
What are the 4 most common elements found in protein?
A protein contains the following elements:CarbonHydrogenOxygenNitrogenA variable group (Can be a carbon, hydrogen, or sometimes a sulfur)
What are four main elements from which protein is made?
All proteins contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen. Most of them also contain sulfur, which is found in the standard amino acid residues cysteine and methionine (any given protein might not contain either of these, though it would be unusual).
What is the percentage of nitrogen in most proteins?
Nearly all of the nitrogen in a diet is present as amino acids in proteins. The average nitrogen content of proteins was found to be around 16 percent.
What are the four most common elements found in proteins?
Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen and Nitrogen

Carbon oxygen hydrogen and nitrogen are in most of these?
proteins
Which element makes proteins different from carbohydrates and fat?
Most likely Nitrogen
Which parts of the human body that contain nitrogen?
Most of the nitrogen in your body is contained within proteins and most of the protein in your body is contained within the muscles.
What molecule is nitrogen found in?
Nitrogen is found in a number of molecules but perhaps most famously it is found in the DNA molecule.
What organic molecule is most common in foods that come from animals?
Proteins.
What are the four most common elements in living matter?
Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen
What is the symbolic relationship found between plants and nitrogen fixing bacteria?
Nitrogen is vital to plants (as well as all other life) as it is a key component of chlorophyll, proteins, and DNA. Without nitrogen fixing bacteria, most plants would quickly deplete the limited stores of nitrogen found in the soil in their immediate area. Nitrogen fixing bacteria are able to synthesize ammonia from free nitrogen in the air, and plants can utilize this ammonia in all of their biological processes.
Most of the nitrogen found in the atmosphere is found in what form?
N2 gas
