Question
directions: the following table is designed to help you organize your knowledge about biomolecules. some of the information has been filled in for you.
| biomolecule: | makes me think of: (this can be original for you) | monomer: | elements: | example(s): |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| lipid | 16. butter | glycerol + fatty acid | 17. c,h,o | 18. amino acid |
| protein | 19. protein drink | 20. genetic information | 21. c,h,o,n | 22. |
| nucleic acid | 23. | 24. | 25. c,h,o,n,p | dna, rna |
Step1: Identify correct monomers and examples
Carbohydrates have monosaccharides as monomers and glucose is an example. Lipids have glycerol + fatty acids as monomers and their elements are C, H, O but amino - acid is not an example of lipid. Proteins have amino - acids as monomers (not genetic information) and elements C, H, O, N, and an example could be hemoglobin. Nucleic acids have nucleotides as monomers.
Step2: Correct the wrong entries
For lipid, the example should be something like fat. For protein, the monomer is amino - acid and an example is hemoglobin. For nucleic acid, a possible "makes me think of" could be a chromosome.
