Describe how the structures of proteins differ from the structures of carbohydrates (150 words)
Veronika [31]

well both are considered macromolecules. proteins are like big lego construction. each single piece gets pieced together to make a larger thing. each single piece is a monomer, and the larger construction is the polymer. the monomers are called amino acids and they get pieced together to form the polymer which is called a protein. the linkage that they use is an amide bond, and in biology it is usually called a peptide bond. carbohydrates can be singular monomers or polymer units. they are made of completely different compounds usually aldehydes or ketones. and they link together through different chemical linkages (acetal or ketal linkages for polymers, hemiacetal or hemiketal linkages for monomers). both can be large, 3D strucutres proteins are only functional as a large, 3D structure, while carbohydrates can be singular. (you might wanna word it differently for safety reason)

Which statement best describes what a thylakoid does during photosynthesis?
zalisa [80]
In photosynthesis, a thylakoid is a sac located in a chloroplast which absorbs light in the form of photons through proteins called Photosystems I and II and cytochrome complexes and uses it to harvest ATP. All of this occurs during the light reaction step of photosynthesis on the membranes of the thylakoids.
