23 multiple choice 1 point how are lipids different from carbohydrates structurally? lipids contain nitrogen lipids are polymers lipids are not made of repeating monomers lipids are composed of nucleotides
Carbohydrates are polymers made of repeating monosaccharide monomers. Lipids are not polymers and do not have repeating monomers. They are mainly composed of fatty - acids and glycerol. Lipids generally do not contain nitrogen (unlike some amino - containing lipids which are not the general case), are not polymers like carbohydrates and proteins, and are not composed of nucleotides (which are the building blocks of nucleic acids).
