Macromolecules
Macromolecules are complex carbon based molecules that all have different functions and monomers, there are four different groups of macromolecules that include, Nucleic Acids, Carbohydrates, Proteins, and Lipids. Carbohydrates are polymers made from monosaccharides, which are simple sugars like glucose and fructose, these are used as a good source of energy. Monosaccharides, the monomer of carbohydrates, are just one sugar unit, they are the simplest form of carbohydrates, but they make up another type of carbohydrates which are disaccharides. Disaccharides are made from two monosaccharides that are joined together by dehydration synthesis, basically two different sugars combine to form a new sugar. Then there are polysaccharides
