What else can I help you with?
Is wax man made or natural?
Several waxes are produced by animals and plants, as beeswax and other; but many types of waxes (this is a large class of organic chemicals called waxes) are extracted from petroleum - but petroleum is also a natural product ! Also true artificial waxes exist, obtained from polyethylene.
What are waxes function?
Waxes help to protect plants by preventing water loss and providing a barrier against pests and pathogens. In animals, waxes can help with waterproofing and insulation. Additionally, waxes are used in various products such as cosmetics, polishes, and candles.
What is the composition of hot wax?
candle is made of Paraffin Waxes Just research the chemical composition of Paraffin Waxes.
What is the importance of waxes in biochemistry?
Waxes in biochemistry serve as protective coatings for plants and animals, helping to prevent dehydration and protect against external elements. They also play a role in energy storage and signaling within cells. In organisms, waxes can have structural functions, such as in the formation of the waxy cuticle on plant leaves.
What role does nitrogen play in plant synthesis?
well i ma doing test corrections on that question now, so i can tell you that it is either proteins, gluclose, or waxes, but i think its either protiens or waxes. :)
Fats oils waxes and steroids are collectively called?

What makes fats oils and waxes?
Fats, oils, and waxes are all made up of molecules called lipids, which are composed of fatty acids and glycerol. The main difference between them lies in their chemical structure and physical properties. Fats are solid at room temperature, oils are liquid at room temperature, and waxes have higher melting points and are more solid than fats.
Types of lipids include what other than fats and waxes?
Lipids include oils, fats, and waxes.

What is the functional group present in waxes?
Waxes consist mainly of esters, which are formed through the reaction between a fatty acid and a long-chain alcohol. This ester linkage is the functional group present in waxes.
