Answer

Macromolecules in human body

             The macromolecules found in human body are:

1. Carbohydrate,

2. Proteins

3. Lipids, and  

4. Nucleic acids.  

Elements they common share

             All these macromolecules have three elements in common which are:

1. Carbon

2. Hydrogen, and

3. Oxygen.  

                   These elements constitute about 95% of human body.

Difference in Chemical properties

                    Carbohydrate is composed of glucose monomers, which may have aldehyde functional group or ketone functional group. Protein is composed of monomers called amino acids. Each amino acid has carboxylic functional group, amino group, alkyl or aryl group and hydrogen atom. Lipid is composed of fatty acids and glycerol. While nucleic acid is composed of monomer called nucleotide. Each nucleotide is composed of pentose sugar, phosphate group and nitrogenous group. Due to the presence of different functional groups all these macromolecules have chemical properties different from each one

How does science directly affect you? Where will what you have learned lead you next? PLEASE HELP ME RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!
Andru [333]

Answer: Literally everywhere. Having an at least basic level of science helps you in day-to-day situations. For example, cooking. Not only is it crucial to understand the chemical and physical processes when cooking, you should also understand the complexity of how these micro and macromolecule exchange processes affect you and your body. Another prime example is your health, or human processes. You might not realize this, but your body is a plethora of complex, interconnected systems and networks that work hard 24/7 to maintain homeostasis (keep you alive). Understanding how our human physiques conduct themselves helps us gain the knowledge to be able to stay alive.
