Organic molecules are relatively complex molecules that contain a backbone of carbon atoms. Examples include hydrocarbons, carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids.
Yes, carbohydrates are organic molecules made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms. They typically have a backbone of carbon atoms bonded to each other, forming a chain or ring structure.
No. DNA is a nucleic acid. Polysaccharides are carbohydrates. DNA's backbone does contain deoxyribose (a monosaccharide) but this in no respect makes DNA a polysaccharide.
The carbohydrate molecule is often referred to as the backbone of biological molecules as it is essential for storing and providing energy. However, carbohydrates are often not represented in diagrams of biological molecules for simplification purposes.
No, amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, not carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are made up of simple sugars (monosaccharides) such as glucose, fructose, and galactose, which combine to form complex carbohydrates like starch and cellulose.
Forms the backbone of starch and cellulose within the plant cell. Mostly used during photosynthesis to produce carbohydrates from atmosphertic carbon dioxide.
Nucleotides consist of a nitrogenous base, a sugar, and a phosphate group5-carbon sugar
Yes, glycerol is a type of alcohol molecule, whereas carbohydrates are composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Carbohydrates contain saccharide units, while glycerol consists of three hydroxyl (OH) groups attached to a propane backbone, making it structurally different from carbohydrates.
Yes they do!Yes, they have a backbone.
no bees are invertabrates that means they have no backbone
No plankton do not have a backbone.
No. No insect has a backbone.
