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

Why is mRNA needed in cells, and how does it help with creating proteins?
nataly862011 [7]
MRNA is needed in the cells because it directs the synthesis of proteins which is found in the cytoplasm. It is a molecule that carries the message contained within DNA to the ribosome. The Proteins are assembled on the ribosomes using the mRNA nucleotide sequence as a guide.

<h3>What is scientific method?</h3>

The scientific method is a set of actions that are followed in order to develop scientific knowledge.

The scientific process includes the following steps:

  1. To make observations on a particular natural occurrence and then generate questions based on those observations.
  2. To answer these questions, you must propose a credible explanation (i.e., a hypothesis).
  3. To put the working hypothesis to the test using experimental and/or observational methods.
  4. To gather information in order to confirm or refute a working theory.
  5. Analyze the findings and develop conclusions.
