Question
question 6 / 10 which kind of macromolecule provides building blocks for tissues, transports other molecules, and helps regulate certain reactions in the body? a. lipid b. carbohydrate c. protein d. amino acid
Proteins are macromolecules that serve as building blocks for tissues (such as muscle, skin, and hair), can act as transporters to move other molecules across cell membranes, and can function as enzymes to regulate chemical reactions in the body. Lipids are mainly for energy - storage and membrane - structure, carbohydrates are for energy - supply, and amino acids are the monomers of proteins, not the macromolecule fulfilling all these functions.
