Identify the primary functions of different macromolecules in cells: proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids.
Recall that proteins perform diverse roles including catalysis, structural support, transport, signaling, and regulation.
Understand that the lipid bilayer is primarily formed by lipids, not proteins, serving as the cell membrane's barrier.
Recognize that genetic information is stored in nucleic acids (DNA and RNA), not proteins.
Note that long-term energy storage in animals is mainly through lipids (like triglycerides), while proteins mainly catalyze biochemical reactions as enzymes.
