proteins
C, H, O, N
held by peptide bonds
polymers = polypeptide, monomer = amino scids
functions-enzymes control rate of reaction, structural support/movement form bones and muscles, transport and communication/moves small molecules in/out of cells, fight diseases
Carbohydrates
C, H, O (1:2:1),
primary source of energy, energy storage, structure/support, essential for function of nervous, digestive, circulatory, and immune systems
monomer= glucose
Lipids
not true polymers because they are small and the monomers don't repeat
more C and H than O
fat has 1 glycerol and 3 fatty acids
Nucleic Acids
C, H, O, N, Phospherous
monomers= nucleotides
store and transmit hereditary info
*genetic blueprint
