Explanation:

In nature, organic compounds may be large chains of monomers form biological macromolecules which carry out many essential functions in the body. These can include nucleic acids, carbohydrates, proteins and lipids. These are organic molecules, meaning they're ringed or long-chain Carbons bonded to the elements oxygen (O), hydrogen (H), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P); they are found in essential organic biomolecules include, proteins, nucleic acids, lipids and carbohydrates.

Proteins are structural support molecules comprised of long chains of monomers called amino acids, joined via peptide (CONH) bonds; these are 20 specific units that are arranged into several macromolecules. Amino acids are absorbed through digestion and are incorporated into the body’s cells to make up organs muscles signal molecules and an alternative energy source. Basic makeup: C, H, O, N, S; polar C, O double bonds and N-H bonding .
