Simple sugars called monosaccharides make up parts of the molecule as well. This molecule presents itself in a pentagonal or hexagonal shape.

They keep the levels of sugar at a healthy level when eaten at a moderate and appropriate pace. If carbs are eaten at an unhealthy quantity, there is too much sugar for the body to break down, becoming detrimental to a person's health. (ex. diabetes)]]> 2021-10-27 17:14:53 UTC https://padlet.com/cs485/cuhfcbff8uivh85d/wish/1848948536 cs485 https://padlet.com/cs485/cuhfcbff8uivh85d/wish/1848970284 Lipids consist of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. Lipids make up the majority of the cell membrane. In our lives, we see this molecule in waxes, fats, and oils. ]]> 2021-10-27 17:22:42 UTC https://padlet.com/cs485/cuhfcbff8uivh85d/wish/1848970284 cs485 https://padlet.com/cs485/cuhfcbff8uivh85d/wish/1848979810 2021-10-27 17:26:03 UTC https://padlet.com/cs485/cuhfcbff8uivh85d/wish/1848979810 cs485 https://padlet.com/cs485/cuhfcbff8uivh85d/wish/1849005392 Lipids serve as another form of energy after carbohydrates are burned, and they also enhance taste as well as caloric density. They are beneficial to humans by giving us energy and help to build the very cells that keep us alive. When someone consumes too much of a lipid, it can clog the arteries in their body, ultimately making them more susceptible to heart disease/attacks. ]]> 2021-10-27 17:34:37 UTC https://padlet.com/cs485/cuhfcbff8uivh85d/wish/1849005392 cs485 https://padlet.com/cs485/cuhfcbff8uivh85d/wish/1851157887 Protein consists of many combined amino acids composed of Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen, and Hydrogen. This molecule appears as a strand of branches.

It builds and aides in repairing tissues and maintains structure and regulation of bodily processes. It is also a big part of building muscle. It is important to get a sufficient amount of this macromolecule in your diet because it is another form of energy that benefits your health greatly. If you were to eat too much protein, it would be a very high calorie count that would eventually put strain on your kidneys. ]]> 2021-11-02 00:47:41 UTC https://padlet.com/cs485/cuhfcbff8uivh85d/wish/1860153235 cs485 https://padlet.com/cs485/cuhfcbff8uivh85d/wish/1860162465 Nucleic acids are made of nucleotides. Inside this macromolecule is Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, and Nitrogen. Nucleic acids are quintessential to each and every living thing. DNA and RNA are the most basic forms of nucleic acids.  ]]> 2021-11-02 00:52:01 UTC https://padlet.com/cs485/cuhfcbff8uivh85d/wish/1860162465 cs485 https://padlet.com/cs485/cuhfcbff8uivh85d/wish/1860163718 2021-11-02 00:52:39 UTC https://padlet.com/cs485/cuhfcbff8uivh85d/wish/1860163718 cs485 https://padlet.com/cs485/cuhfcbff8uivh85d/wish/1860178075 Nucleic acids carry genetic information, relating back to RNA and DNA. This macromolecule is structured as a double helix, in a line. It is important because we would be pretty lost without it. Age related disorders have been associated with high levels of nucleic acid. ]]> 2021-11-02 00:58:51 UTC https://padlet.com/cs485/cuhfcbff8uivh85d/wish/1860178075
