What are the most important organic compounds of life?
Sodium chloride. Potassium nitrate.
What are the 4 organic compounds?
carbohydrates, lipids, protein, and nucleic acids.
Where are non volcanic mountain chains most likely form?
at a boundary between two colliding continenetal plates
What is two elements make up most of the ocean?
Hydrogen and oxygen forming water molecules make up most of the ocean.
What is most likely the result of an organism having lipids in its body?
A walrus stays warm in the cold ocean.or Penguins can stay warm in cold arctic waters.
Most lipids contain long chains of which two atoms?
carbon and hydrogen
What functions do lipids could you describe to convince the person of the importance of fats to his or her health?
lipids are nonpolar molecules that include fats, oils, and cholesterol. Like carbohydrates, most lipids contain chains of carbon atoms bonded to oxygen and hydrogen atoms.
Which compounds store energy and make up most of the cell membrane lipids proteins carbohydrates?
Lipids.
Which ckass of macromolecules is not organized in repeating units of monomers?
The most common example is lipids.
What makes up lipids?
Glycerol forms the backbone of a triglyceride. Three free-swinging fatty acid chains bond to it, forming a triglyceride, the most common type of lipid.
Can you get supplies to make a key chain?
Yes, you can buy supplies to make key chains. Most hobby and craft type stores will have supplies for making key chains.
Do lipids play a important fact in the cell Membrane?
Yes - they make up most of it.
Can a lipid be distinguished from a sugar?
Lipids are not a carbohydrate. Lipids are lipids. Lipids include fats, waxes, sterols, fat-soluble vitamins, monoglycerides, diglycerides, triglycerides, and phospholipids. Sugar includes monosaccharides galactose, lactose, and fructose and other saccharides. These are carbohydrates characterized by a sweet flavor. In most cases and in common use sugar almost exclusively refers to sucrose (glucose + fructose). There are no compounds which are in both groups save glycolipids, lipids with carbohydrate side-chains.
Why are proteins among the most diverse macromolecules?
Proteins are made of long chains of molecules called amino acids. There are 21 different amino acids, resulting in almost endless possibilities. The sequence, the length, and the folding structure are all easily varied in proteins. By comparison, carbohydrates and lipids have few variations in structure or make-up.
What kind of organisms are at the start of most food chains?
The kind of organisms that are at the start of most food chains are producers. Producers make their own food and animals feed off of them.
What kind of organisms are at the start of most foods chains?
The kind of organisms that are at the start of most food chains are producers. Producers make their own food and animals feed off of them.
How do lipids and carbohydrates differ in ATP production?
Lipids store the most energy. Fats store about 80% of the energy in your body, and when they are broken down they give the most energy. Carbohydrates make about 32 molecules of ATP, and dare used more commonly to make the ATP.
