About this resource
This quiz comprehensively covers biological macromolecules and enzyme function, topics that form the foundation of high school biology courses at the 9th and 10th grade levels. Students must demonstrate mastery of the four major macromolecules—carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids—including their monomeric building blocks, elemental composition, structural characteristics, and biological functions. The questions require students to identify specific examples of each macromolecule type, understand the relationship between structure and function, and recognize visual representations of molecular structures. Additionally, students must grasp enzyme mechanics, including the lock-and-key model, active sites, substrate specificity, and environmental factors that affect enzyme activity such as temperature and pH. The assessment also tests knowledge of dehydration synthesis, the difference between saturated and unsaturated fats, and the distinction between monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides. Created by Robin Brogdon, a Biology teacher in the US who teaches grades 9 and 10. This quiz serves as an excellent tool for formative assessment, allowing teachers to gauge student understanding of fundamental biochemistry concepts before moving to more advanced cellular processes. The comprehensive nature of the questions makes it ideal for unit review sessions or as homework to reinforce classroom learning about macromolecules and enzymes. Teachers can use this assessment as a warm-up activity to activate prior knowledge or break it into smaller sections for targeted practice on specific macromolecule types. The quiz effectively supports instruction by identifying knowledge gaps in student understanding of molecular biology basics. This assessment aligns with NGSS standards HS-LS1-6 (constructing explanations for how molecular interactions determine structure and function of biological molecules) and supports Common Core literacy standards in scientific reasoning and evidence evaluation.
