Four Macromolecules Of Life at Life

Four Macromolecules Of Life. What are the subunits that make up each of the macromolecules? Nucleic acids, protiens, lipids, and carbohydrates.

Each macromolecule has functions that it carries out in the cell and body. Lipids are a hydrophobic set of macromolecules, i.e., they do not dissolve in water. What are the four macromolecules made of?

Four classes of macromolecules

In a nutshell, a macromolecule is a very large molecule consisting of many smaller structural units linked together (like how a train is made up multiple cars linked together). The biologic macromolecules are essential to life. The four main macromolecules are carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids (dna/rna), and lipids. Many carbohydrates and lipids are macromolecules.
