Answered by GPT-4o mini
The correct response is **cholesterol**. Cholesterol is a lipid that is a key component of cell membranes and serves as a precursor for the synthesis of hormones.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
The correct response is **nitrogen elements**. Not all biomolecules contain nitrogen; for example, carbohydrates and lipids do not necessarily have nitrogen in their structure.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
The correct response is **amylase**. Amylase is the enzyme that breaks down starch into simpler sugars in your saliva.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
The correct response is **nitrogen**. Plants use nitrogen, along with glucose, to create amino acids.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
The correct response is **amino acids**. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.
