All of the following are macromolecules except:

Biology
1 answer:
Harman [31]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The correct answer is c. Fatty acids

Explanation:

There are four major types of macromolecules present in nature and that are carbohydrates(polysaccharides), proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. These macromolecules are polymers and are made up of monomer units.  

The monomeric unit of polysaccharides is mainly glucose, of protein is amino acids, of nucleic acid is nucleotides and the monomeric unit of lipid is fatty acids. Ribosomes are macromolecules because it is made up of RNA  and proteins.

So fatty acid is a monomer which joins together to form large macromolecules like lipids. Fatty acids are made up of a hydrocarbon chain which have one attached COOH group at the terminal position.

Therefore the correct answer is c. Fatty acids.

Amino acids are needed to build ________, just as ________ are needed to create dna.
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer;

- Proteins, nucleotides;

Amino acids are needed to build proteins just as nucleotides are needed to create DNA.

Explanation;

-Amino acids bond together to make long chains. Those long chains of amino acids are also called proteins. Protein plays a crucial role in almost all biological processes and amino acids are the building blocks of it. A large proportion of our cells, muscles and tissue is made up of amino acids, meaning they carry out many important bodily functions, such as giving cells their structure.

-Nucleotides are the building blocks of nucleic acids; they are composed of three subunit molecules: a nitrogenous base, a five-carbon sugar (ribose or deoxyribose), and at least one phosphate group.

How electrochemical gradients and proton gradients are formed and function in cells
sp2606 [1]

To move substances against a concentration or electrochemical gradient, the cell must utilize energy in the form of ATP during active transport. Primary active transport, which is directly dependent on ATP, moves ions across a membrane and creates a difference in charge across that membrane.
