MOLECULES TO METABOLISM
CARBOHYDRATES
-
-
Contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen
-
-
LIPIDS
-
Examples include: phospholipids, oils, waxes, triglyceride fats (saturated and unsaturated)
Contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen
-
PROTEINS
-
Contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen (additionally sulfur is common component, but it is not present in all proteins)
They can be the structural or part of the plasma membrane. They can also perform other diverse functions in organisms like in hormones or enzymes.
-
NUCLEIC ACIDS
Nucleotides consists of base, sugar and phosphate groups covalently bonded together
If the sugar is ribose then the nucleic acid formed is RNA, if the sugar is deoxyribose then DNA is formed.
-
Contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus.
