Carbon chains are principal features of both carbohydrates and lipids.what is the primary difference between these two types of
solong [7]
While both carbohydrates and lipids are made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen there are several differences:

1. Carbohydrates are chains of 2 or more carbon atoms.  These can be very lengthy (like long cellulose chains of glucose units). They have many polar OH groups (e.g. glucose - C6H6O6). Most carbohydrates are hydrophilic and are soluble in water because of their polar OH groups. They are not necessarily sugars nor are they necessarily sweet. They are also important components of DNA, RNA and ATP.

2. Lipids are more diverse in their chemistry. They generally have a polar region at one end (this end attracts water) and a large non polar hydrocarbon region that repels water. Lipids don't dissolve in water and instead clump together with their hydrocarbon regions on the interior. Lipids include oils, fatty acids, waxes, steroids and hormones.

How did the development of technology and academic rivalry influence the Human Genome Project?
olya-2409 [2.1K]
<span>The Human Genome Project had a very negative effect due to development in technology and academic rivalry. With knowledge came bitter rivalry and with technology came the tendency to become God. These angles greatly created negative impact about this project. The experts tried to create human clones, tissue engineering etc.  The scientists tried to analyze a person and get rid of any future disease that might attack them. Some people feel this is good while others feel that it is like distorting the natural process. </span>
