What is the building blocks of a substance called?
the building blocks of substances are called what atoms or molecules?
Why are plastic building blocks good for modeling molecules?
they can be combined in many different ways
What are fundamental building blocks of all matter?
The building blocks of all matter are called atoms. The breakdown of the four main organic molecules are as follows (follow the format substance : building block) Lipids: Fatty Acids Carbohydrates: Monosaccharides Nucleic Acids: Nucleotides Proteins: Amino Acids
The basic building block of matter?
The basic building blocks of matter are known as atoms. They start out tiny, and then bond to form molecules.

Building blocks of life, hormones, enzymes etc
What are biochemical compounds that are building the blocks of protein?
They are known as biochemical enzymes.
What are the building blocks of monosacharide?
alpha glucose molecules
What is the fundamental building blocks of all matter?

What organelles clean up the cell?
You might be referring to the lysosomes with in the cell which contain the digestive enzymes needed to breakdown complex molecules into more simpler ones (the cell nucleus determines what to do with the simpler 'building blocks' and what to make next). The busting of a lysosome accidentally can kill the cell by digesting it slowly, this is referred to as apoptosis.
