Question

Given their size and complexity, biological molecules such as carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids can also be referred to as ____________.

Answer 1

Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are;

A. Enlarged molecules

B. Macromolecules

C. Inorganic molecules

The answer is B

Explanation:

As mentioned in this question, carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids are the basic biomolecules found in nature. They are all polymeric substances, hence, are made up of smaller units called monomers.

Asides from being biomolecules, these four molecules are also referred to as MACROMOLECULES based on their large size and complex nature. Macromolecules are molecules that are relatively large in size composing of an aggregate of monomer. Hence, these biomolecules are macromolecules.
