Macromolecules Practice

Match the macromolecule to the monomer: Nucleic Acid Nucleotides Lipids Fatty Acids + glycerol Proteins Amino Acid Carbohydrates Monosaccharides Fill in the blanks with the correct answer. 1. A nucleic acid is made up a monomer called a(n) nucleotide.2. Examples of nucleic acids are DNA There are 20 different types of amino acids that can be found in protein.4. A carbon-hydrogen chain that makes up part of a lipid is called a fatty acid.5. An enzyme, a molecule that speeds up a reaction, is an example of a protein.6. Glycogen, an energy source of animals, is an example of a carbohydrate.7. A small building block of a macromolecule is called a monomer, which joins together to form large molecules called polymers. Sort appropriately. Saturated Fats Bad fats Single bonds Butter, red meat solid at room temperature Unsaturated Fats good fats Double bonds oils and nuts Liquid at room temperature Match the prefixes correctly Mono- One Di- Two Poly- Many Phospho- Phosphate Bio- Life -ology The study of Match the polysaccharides correctly. 1. Starch is food and energy for plants.2. Animals use Glycogen for energy.3. Chitin is used for structure of insects and fungi.4. Cellulose makes up the plant cell wall. Do lipids soluble in water? (meaning do they like water? Yes No Which macromolecule does NOT contain nitrogen? Protein Carbohydrate Nucleic Acid Which macromolecule does NOT provide energy? Carbs Lipids Nucleic Acid Which is NOT an example of a lipid? Triglycerides Disaccharides Phospholipids What is NOT a polysaccharide? Phospholipid Starch Cellulose This is a an example of.... Monosaccharide Polysaccharide Disaccharide Sort the description into the correct column. Carbohydrate Made up of monosaccharides Commonly called sugars Lactose and cellulose are an example MAIN energy source of humans Lipid Made up of fatty acids and glycerol Commonly called oils and fats Makes up the cell membrane Triglycerides Protein Contain peptide bonds Forms blood, skin, hair and muscles Made up of amino acids Makes enzymes Nucleic Acid Contains phosphate Energy Carrier (ATP) DNA Made up of nucleotides Match: Nucleotide Amino Acid Triglyceride Monosaccharide
