Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the four major types of biomolecules essential for life. These are carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids.
Understand the role of carbohydrates: They are the primary source of energy and are involved in structural functions in cells.
Recognize the function of lipids: They are important for energy storage, cell membrane structure, and signaling.
Learn about proteins: They perform a wide range of functions including catalyzing biochemical reactions (as enzymes), providing structural support, and regulating processes.
Explore nucleic acids: They are responsible for storing and transmitting genetic information, with DNA and RNA being the primary types.
