Fats have CHO but with a different ratio.

Proteins have CHO and nitrogen.

What element is found in proteins but not in carbohydrates and lipids?

None. They all have carbon and hydrogen in common. Proteins also contain nitrogen, but so do many lipids (for example phosphatidylcholine).


What contains most energy protein lipids or carbohydrates?

Fats (lipids) contain the most energy per gram compared to proteins and carbohydrates. While proteins and carbohydrates provide 4 calories per gram, fats provide 9 calories per gram. So, gram for gram, fats contain more than twice the energy of proteins and carbohydrates.


Where do lipids and proteins go?

lipids are fats so to fat ducts and proteins in muscles


Why glyoxysomes are absent in lipid poor seed?

Glyoxysomes are specialized peroxisomes that aid in the conversion of lipids into carbohydrates during germination. In lipid-poor seeds, there is a lack of stored lipids for conversion, so glyoxysomes are not needed and may be absent. These seeds rely on other energy sources such as proteins or carbohydrates for germination.


Do lipids contain less oxygen than carbohydrates?

Yes Lipids contain less oxygen because the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen for carbohydrates is 2:1 while for lipids it varies but let's say its for Lauric acid (CH3C10H20COOH) the ratio is 12 hydrogen for 1 oxygen. So lipids do contain less oxygen than carbohydrates

What do the antibody proteins do?

They bind to antigens, which can be either proteins, carbohydrates, or proteins decorated with attached carbohydrates. This allows the immune system to recognize infectious organisms and parasites so it can prepare to fight them.


Compare and contrast carbohydrates lipids and nucleic acids in terms of building blocks structures and functions in the body?

carbohydrate were made up of three basic elements,C,H,O and are in polygon in shape. they usually found in fruits. it activates the enegery and where stored in the form of glucose or either sucrose in the plants. Lipid- it is the long chain of C,H,O. it stores energy. we get lipid (fat) from dairy proudcts. Protein- has X or R group attached to the chain. amino acid were the basic structure for protein to formed., it makes gene.


How are lypids and proteins similar?

First of all, lypids are supposed to be lipids. Lipids, phospholipids, make up the membrane. Proteins, also work for the cell. Proteins do ALOT of jobs. There are hundreds and hundreds of different types of proteins. Enzymes protect the cell and so on.


What is a cell composed of?

The cell membrane is composed of the lipid bilayer. In addition to lipids most membranes contain proteins and carbohydrates. ________________________________________________________________ YOUR finger nails and hair are made out of Keratin. its a protein (so is whale baleen and animal horns)


How do lipids carbohydrates proteins and nucleic acids work together in your body?

lipids are neither of those. lipids are simply another separate group. lipids are things like fats/acid, triglycerides, cell membrane, sex hormones, and cholesterol. the are made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.


Does bicycling burn fat?

Any form of movement requires the burning of ATP for energy, which can come from the breakdown of carbohydrates, proteins, or lipids(Fats). So yes, you will burn fat as long as your need for ATP requires burning of fat.
