Can you help me with these questions
Directions: Either it's a protein, nucleic acid, carboydrate, or a lipid
1.Plymers formed from amino acids
I2. s a polymer
by I2 it supposed to say is a polymer
amino acids form proteins,which are long chains
Of course! I'd be happy to help with your questions.
To determine whether a molecule is a protein, nucleic acid, carbohydrate, or lipid, we need to examine its structural and functional properties.
1. Polymers formed from amino acids are proteins. Proteins are complex macromolecules made up of long chains of amino acids, connected by peptide bonds. They play crucial roles in various biological functions, such as enzyme catalysis, cell signaling, and structural support.
2. Without further information, it is not possible to determine whether a molecule is a protein, nucleic acid, carbohydrate, or lipid solely based on the fact that it is a polymer. This is because all of these biomolecules can exist as polymers. Therefore, additional context or specific characteristics need to be provided to correctly identify the molecule.
If you have more specific information or additional questions, please let me know!
