Nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids are the four major types of biomolecules that form all living things. These biomolecules consists of monomers linked together by covalent bonds to form polymers.

  • Nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates and lipids can be classified according to their basic elements, monomer constituents, and functions.

Basic elements:

  1. Nucleic acids: Hydrogen (H); Carbon (C); Oxygen (O); Nitrogen (N); Phosphorous (P)
  2. Proteins: Hydrogen (H); Carbon (C); Oxygen (O); Nitrogen (N); Sulfur (Z)
  3. Carbohydrates: Hydrogen (H); Carbon (C); Oxygen (O)
  4. Lipids: Hydrogen (H); Carbon (C); Oxygen (O); Phosphorous (P)

Monomer constituents:

  1. Nucleic acids: nucleotides
  2. Proteins: amino acids
  3. Carbohydrates: monosaccharides
  4. Lipids: fatty acids and glycerol

Functions:

  1. Nucleic acids: contains the hereditary information to synthesize proteins
  2. Proteins: regulate metabolic processes (enzymes), the main biomolecule of cellular structures
  3. Carbohydrates: store energy (short term); form cellular structures
  4. Lipids: store energy (long term); the main component of biological membranes

Examples:

  1. Nucleic acids: DNA and RNA
  2. Proteins: lactase; collagen
  3. Carbohydrates: starch (polysaccharide); glucose (monosacharide)
  4. Lipids: phospholipids; cholesterol

Pus in a body cavity, especially the pleural cavity is called:
rusak2 [61]
The pleural cavity is the thin fluid-filled space between the two pulmonary pleurae (known as visceral and parietal) of each lung. A pleura is a serous membrane which folds back onto itself to form a two-layered membranouspleural sac. The outer pleura (parietal pleura) is attached to the chest wall, but is separated from it by the endothoracic fascia. The inner pleura (visceral pleura) covers the lungs and adjoining structures, including blood vessels, bronchi and nerves. The pleural cavity can be viewed as a potential space because the two pleurae adhere to each other (through the thin film of serous liquid) under all normal conditions.

If an enzyme is added to a chemical reaction, it will do what?
Nana76 [90]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option C is correct.

C. lower the activation energy so the reaction rate will increase

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Enzymes are protein molecules in cells which work as catalysts. Enzymes speed up chemical reactions in the body, but do not get used up in the process. Almost all biochemical reactions in living things need enzymes. With an enzyme, chemical reactions go much faster than they would without the enzyme.
