Explanation:

1. Carbohydrates come from plant - based foods like grains, fruits, and vegetables.
2. No specific answers provided in reference for copying.
3. Lipids function as energy storage, insulation, and as components of cell membranes.
4. Lipids are non - polar and do not mix with water (they are hydrophobic).
5. Proteins are made from amino acids.
6. Ribosomes make proteins.
7. Enzymes: Catalyze biochemical reactions; Storage Proteins: Store amino acids; Defensive Proteins/Antibodies: Recognize and neutralize pathogens; Hormonal Proteins: Regulate physiological processes; Receptor Proteins: Bind to signaling molecules; Contractile and Motor Proteins: Enable movement; Structural Proteins: Provide structural support; Transport Proteins: Transport substances across cell membranes.
8. Nucleic acids store, transmit, and express genetic information. DNA has 2 strands.
9. RNA has 1 strand.
10. m - RNA: Linear, carries genetic information from DNA to ribosomes; r - RNA: Complex structure, component of ribosomes; t - RNA: Clover - leaf shape, carries amino acids to ribosomes during translation.
11. a. DNA: Stores genetic information and is the blueprint for protein synthesis. b. RNA: Involved in protein synthesis, has roles in transcription and translation.

Answer:

1. Plant - based foods such as grains, fruits, and vegetables.
