Here’s the matching of macromolecules from Column A to their cellular roles in living organisms:

  1. Carbohydrates

    • Primary source of energy for most organisms, and are made of at least one monosaccharide.
  2. Proteins

    • Some types lower the energy of activation for reactions to occur more quickly.
  3. Lipids (fats and oils)

    • High energy value storage material and can be used for insulation and cushioning.
  4. Nucleic acids

    • Used primarily for protein synthesis and determine what and who you are.

So, the completed matches are:

  • Carbohydrates → Primary source of energy for most organisms, and are made of at least one monosaccharide.
  • Proteins → Some types lower the energy of activation for reactions to occur more quickly.
  • Lipids → High energy value storage material and can be used for insulation and cushioning.
  • Nucleic acids → Used primarily for protein synthesis and determine what and who you are.
