They alone do not show characteristics of life like growth,reproduction,homeostasis,reactions for stimulii.
No, but most macromolecules are organic molecules (with a backbone made of carbon atoms). But it is possible to synthetically create macromolecules with a backbone made of silicon atoms (i.e. the silicones), boron atoms (i.e. the boranes), and a few others. The atoms attached to the backbone or forming side branches extending away from the backbone can be any element on the periodic table.
Atoms make up elements. groups of elements make up molecules. Groups of molecules form macromolecules (polymers) which make up cells.
Organic molecules are molecules that contain hydrogen and carbon. Macromolecules are considered to be organic compounds because they are made up of many carbon and hydrogen atoms put together.
All four macromolecules (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids) have carbon atoms as a common element. Carbon atoms are the backbone of organic molecules because of their ability to form versatile and stable bonds with a variety of other elements.
The atom is the base unit for all molecules and compounds. The prefix "macro-" means "big" or "large", and includes proteins, carbs, and lipids. All these compounds are composed of many atoms.
They are called macromolecules.
They are called macromolecules.
Cells represent a more complex level of organization than organelles, molecules, and atoms. Cells contain organelles, which are made up of molecules, and molecules are made up of atoms. Cells are the fundamental unit of structure and function in living organisms.
No, large molecules containing carbon atoms are not called micromolecules. They are typically referred to as macromolecules. Micromolecules generally refer to smaller molecules like water, salts, and simple sugars.
It is false. They are called "Macromolecules."
These substabces are macromolecules.
Carbon atoms are not specifically called micromolecules. Carbon atoms are the building blocks of larger molecules known as macromolecules, such as carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. Micromolecules refer to small molecules with a relatively low molecular weight and are not specific to carbon atoms.
Yes, macromolecules are built from atoms. They are large molecules composed of many atoms bonded together in a specific way to form complex structures, such as proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids. Each macromolecule has a unique arrangement of atoms that determines its specific properties and functions.
No, but most macromolecules are organic molecules (with a backbone made of carbon atoms). But it is possible to synthetically create macromolecules with a backbone made of silicon atoms (i.e. the silicones), boron atoms (i.e. the boranes), and a few others. The atoms attached to the backbone or forming side branches extending away from the backbone can be any element on the periodic table.
Yes. Macromolecules such as diamond (a form of carbon), and samples of polymers such as polyethylen can all contain far in excess of 109 atoms.
Atoms make up elements. groups of elements make up molecules. Groups of molecules form macromolecules (polymers) which make up cells.
