Question

Match the organic macromolecule with one of its cellular roles in living organisms. Column A 1. Lipids: Lipids 2. Carbohydrates: Carbohydrates 3. Proteins: Proteins 4. Nucleic acids: Nucleic acids Column B a.Used primarily for protein synthesis - determine what and who you are. b. Some types lower the energy of activation for reactions to occur more quickly, all are made up of amino acids. c. High energy value storage material and can be used for insulation and cushioning. d. Primary source of energy for most organisms, and are made of at least one monosaccharide.

Answer 1
