Macromolecules
Macromolecules are large molecules made up of smaller molecules joined together. The four main groups are proteins, lipids, carbohydrates and nucleic acids. They are essentially for proper cellular functioning.
755 Questions
Which macromolecules are often made of three fatty acids bound to a gycerol molecule?
They are the lipids. A kind of biological macromolecule
What chemical reaction is used to synthesize macromolecules like polypeptides and starch?
The chemical reaction used to synthesize macromolecules like polypeptides and starch is called dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction. This reaction involves joining monomers together by removing a water molecule to form a covalent bond between them.
Which macromolecules have only atoms of c h and o?
The macromolecules that are composed primarily of C, H, and O are lipids and carbohydrates.
What chemical bonds do these macromolecules have carbohydrate protein nucleic acid lipid?
covalent bonds
What macromolecule is built during transcription?
mRNA (and other RNA) molecule is built during transcription of DNA. mRNA transcript undergoes for processing to become mature. They transported to cytoplasm for the protein synthesis.
Can you mix human DNA and tiger DNA?
Most likely no. DNA is far too complex to "mix." If you wanted a mutated monkey tiger baby for a pet, the you might want to go ask this question somewhere else. Mixing DNA isn't as simple as dropping a toenail from a human and fur from a tiger into a mixing pot and then feeding it to a baby monkey. =_=" DNA takes maybe a yard long strand to just code for maybe your eye color, if not more.
Why is carbon able to form macromolecules?
It can form four bonds. It is small and can form long chains
The four macromolecules are carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. Each macromolecule plays a key role in the structure and function of living organisms. Carbohydrates are a major source of energy, lipids are important for energy storage and cell membrane structure, proteins are involved in most cellular functions, and nucleic acids store and transmit genetic information.
What macromolecules is made up of nucleic acid?
They are the nucleotides . They make up nucleic acids
What elements make up lipids-?
Lipids contain Oxygen, Hydrogen and Carbon. Some even contain Phosphorus.
Below are types of lipids.
fats, waxes, steroids, monoglycerides, diglycerides, triglycerides and phospholipids.
What type of macromolecules are in meat patty?
I'm sure tat proteins and lipids are present in a lean patty. But I don't think there's any carbohydrates present.
What are macromolecules which are chosen as drug targets?
Macromolecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates and lipids are called drug targets.
What would be the consequence for DNA synthesis if DNA ligase were defective?
If DNA ligase were defective, it would impede the ability to join Okazaki fragments during DNA replication. This could result in gaps in the newly synthesized DNA strand, leading to mutations and potential disruptions in vital cellular processes.
What is the purpose of using molecular models?
The purpose of using molecular models is to be able to see the three dimensional and geometric shape of the molecule or compound being modeled.
