A long carbon and hydrogen chain and a carboxyl group.
In images of fatty acids (the monomers of Lipids), it is depicted as a long carbon chain with hydrogen on the ends and connected to them as well, yet on the clear side is the carboxyl group.
Hope this helps!
Is there a picture that goes with this or a question?
A protein is a polymer of amino acids.
When amino acids are joined by dehydration synthesis (a process that removes
water to form a chemical bond), they form peptide bonds. <span>There are three main components of an
amino acid, the amino group, the side chain, and the carboxylic acid group. </span>
