What type of basic biological molecule does the body absorb?

First of all what is a biological molecule? Its a group of substances that make up and helps with proper functioning of a living organism. There are several different types of biological molecules: - Carbohydrates - Proteins - Salts - Lipids -etc.


Which class of biological molecule is made up of long hydrocarbon chains and is not soluble in water Nucleic acidsLipidsCarbonhydratesor Proteins?

The class of biological molecules made up of long hydrocarbon chains and is not soluble in water is lipids. Lipids include fats, oils, and phospholipids, which are hydrophobic due to their long hydrocarbon structures. This characteristic makes them insoluble in water, differentiating them from nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and proteins.


What feature of large biological molecules explains their great diversity?

The diversity of large biological molecules can be attributed to their varied combinations of building blocks such as amino acids, nucleotides, and carbohydrates. These building blocks can be arranged in countless ways, giving rise to a wide range of structures and functions in proteins, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates, providing the basis for the vast array of biological molecules found in nature.

What are prostoglandins?

Prostoglandins are chemical mediators. These are released from mammalian cells and effect the cells in their immediate viccinity. They produce what's known as an inflammatory response. Prostoglandins are found in cell membranes, they are released due to injury. They cause the dilation of small arteries and arterioles and increase the permeability of the capillaries. They affect neurotransmitters and blood pressure and hence pain sensation.
