Macromolecules -Verified--Solution-----large polymeric molecule made
up of many covalently bonded monomers Biomacromolecules -Verified-
-Solution-----carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids (DNA/RNA)
Carbohydrate Major Function -Verified--Solution-----energy metabolism
Lipid Major Function -Verified--Solution-----energy, structural,
regulatory
Protein Major Function -Verified--Solution-----regulation, structure,
transport, protection
1|Page
,Nucleic Acid Major Function -Verified--Solution-----regulation,
hereditary, protein synthesis
Carbohydrates -Verified--Solution-----made of carbon, hydrogen, and
oxygen atoms
commonly referred to as "sugars" primary
source of fuel for organisms
Carbohydrate hydrogen to oxygen ration -Verified--Solution----2:1
Monosaccharides -Verified--Solution-----simple sugar carbohydrates
made up of a single monomer
ex: glucose, fructose, and ribose + deoxyribose (RNA+DNA)
Low Density Lipoprotein -Verified--Solution-----"bad cholesterol,"
builds up within vessels of the body
Essential Elements -Verified--Solution-----elements that are required for
human life and are abundant
2|Page
, Trace Elements -Verified--Solution-----elements that are required for
human life but only in small amounts
6 predominate elements in living organisms -Verified--Solution---
--oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphate
Ions -Verified--Solution-----atoms of molecules with net negative or
positive charge
Cations -Verified--Solution-----positively charged ions
Anions -Verified--Solution-----negatively charged ions
Ionic Bonds -Verified--Solution-----formed when ions of
molecules of opposite charge are attracted to each other
relatively stable typically metal + nonmetal
Covalent Bond -Verified--Solution-----formed when electrons are
shared equally between two atoms to complete the valence shells of
both strong
