Carbohydrates are an important source of fuel in the body. Some of the main functions of carbohydrates include: Quick energy Energy storage Building biological molecules Regulating lipid metabolism Conserving p
Animals cannot manufacture organic compounds. They obtain them in ready form from their food. The most important organic compounds in living things are carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, vitamins, and nucleic acids. Answer and Explanation:...
Nucleic acids and carbohydrates Which of the following macromolecules are made of amino acids? (a) proteins (b) complex carbohydrates (c) nucleic acids (d) lipids. What are the monomers and polymers of: carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and nuclei acids? What are the...
Examples include very small molecules like methane (CH4) and very large macromolecules like carbohydrates (glucose), lipids (triglycerides), nucleic acids (DNA), and proteins (the enzyme lactase). What is an example of an organic molecule? Examples of organic molecules include Hydrocarbons e.g...
Bacteria are unicellular prokaryotic microorganisms. Their cells contain carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. They produce energy and metabolites using different chemicals since their cells lack cellular organelles such aschloroplasts, nuclei, andmitochondriathat perform these functions. Usually,...
such as an organic compound that contains carbon atoms that are generally bound covalently to other atoms. Organic compounds are of vital importance because all living things are based on these compounds. Examples of organic compounds are carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids that are ...

Macronutrientsare nutrients required in large amounts to support energy production, growth, and essential bodily functions. The three primary macronutrients are carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins. They provide energy in the form of calories. Carbohydrates and proteins each supply 4 calories per gram, ...
