Summary Introduction
To determine:
The role of structure on functions of organic molecules, such as carbohydrates, lipids, and protein.
Introduction:
The biomolecule is composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms. In every biomolecule, other atoms such as Sulphur, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms are also found. All these atoms bind to carbon skeleton of the

- Macromolecules are very large molecules created by the polymerization of small units called monomers. Most of the macromolecules are present in everyday life, for instance in food. In the Introduction to Food Macromolecules simulation, you will help your friend determine a healthy diet and investigate the types of macromolecules found in food. By performing a series of biochemistry tests, you will know the content of various food items. * * What are the different forms (i.e., monomers, polymers) of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins? * What macromolecules do each of the biochemical tests check for? * What would an abundance or deficiency of one of the macromolecules cause to the human body?arrow_forwardCreate a concept map which the main topic is macromolecules and it branches out to the following topics Water, Carbohydrate, Proteins, Lipids- include cell membranes, Nucleic acids A concept map is a useful strategy to organize and understand the "BIG picture" of a particular concept - this case Biochemistry. Concept maps are usually organized in the following manner... • start with the main topic in the middle a key areas are then placed on the map followed by more specific ideas radiating outwards • connectors (lines/arrows) are used to join each concept on the map connectors are labeled with a word or short phrase that explains the relationship between the connected concepts Good concept maps include colors, pictures and other graphic organizers (symbols, shapes, various fonts, etc) to organize and illustrate ideas. Use your class notes and information presented in D2L to gather the information that needs to be presented on the concept map.
