### Macromolecules/Biomolecules Summary:
| Macromolecule | Monomer (Building block) | Elements | Function | Example |
|---------------------|--------------------------|----------------------------|----------------------------------------------|--------------------------|
| Carbohydrates | Monosaccharides | Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), Oxygen (O) | Provide energy and structural support | Glucose, Starch |
| Lipids | Fatty acids and Glycerol | Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), Oxygen (O) | Energy storage, insulation, and cellular membrane structure | Triglycerides, Phospholipids |
| Proteins | Amino acids | Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), Oxygen (O), Nitrogen (N), Sulfur (S) | Catalyze biochemical reactions, structural support, transport | Enzymes, Hemoglobin |
| Nucleic Acids | Nucleotides | Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), Oxygen (O), Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P) | Store and transmit genetic information | DNA, RNA |
### LESSON NUMBER/ QUESTION / YOUR ANSWER/NOTES
- **LESSON 2/ 1. Describe a hydrocarbon? in 1 sentence:**
A hydrocarbon is an organic compound consisting entirely of hydrogen and carbon atoms, often found in fossil fuels and serving as a primary energy source.
- **LESSON 2/ 2. How many bonds can Carbon make? This is what makes it unique. in 1 sentence:**
Carbon can form four covalent bonds with other atoms, which allows it to create complex and diverse organic molecules.
