A biology student creates a table that shows the function of the four major macromolecules.

For which macromolecule does the student list an incorrect function?

a
the proteins, because they are responsible for helping plants retain water
b
the nucleic acids, because they are responsible for providing support for the cell wall
c
the lipids, because they are responsible for long-term energy storage
d
the carbohydrates, because they are entirely responsible for the structure of the cell membrane

b. the nucleic acids, because they are responsible for providing support for the cell wall

The student listed an incorrect function for the nucleic acids.
