select the major organic compounds.

• Carbohydrates

• Lipids

• Proteins

• Nucleic acid

What is monomer?

• A single building block

• Many blocks put together

Define polymer?

• Many building blocks (many monomers together)

• A single building block (one single unit)

Click the diagram that correctly describes monomers and polymers:

• Polymer + polymer = monomer

• Monomer + monomer = polymer

• C (Carbon), H (Hydrogen), O (Oxygen), N (Nitrogen)

• C (Carbon), H (Hydrogen), O (Oxygen), N (Nitrogen), P (phosphorus)

What is the element for lipids

• C (Carbon), H (Hydrogen), O (Oxygen),

• C (Carbon), H (Hydrogen), O (Oxygen), N (Nitrogen), P (phosphorus)

• C (Carbon), H (Hydrogen), O (Oxygen), N (Nitrogen)

What are the elements for proteins?

• C (Carbon), H (Hydrogen), O (Oxygen), N (Nitrogen), P (phosphorus)
