These molecules are the main source of quick energy for cells and are found in foods like bread, pasta, and fruits. They include sugars and starches.

• Carbohydrates

• Lipids

• Proteins

• Nucleic Acids

These molecules store and transmit genetic information. DNA and RNA are examples of this type of biomolecule.

• Carbohydrates

• Lipids

• Proteins

• Nucleic Acids

This biomolecule is composed of long chains of simple sugars (monosaccharides) linked together. It is primarily used by the body for energy and structural support, and can be classified into two types: starch and glycogen.

• Carbohydrates

• Lipids

• Proteins

• Nucleic Acids

This biomolecule is made up of long chains of amino acids that fold into specific 3D shapes. It can serve a wide variety of functions such as catalyzing biochemical reactions, forming structural components, and transporting molecules. The shape of this biomolecule is essential for its function.

This biomolecule is hydrophobic in nature and includes fatty acids, triglycerides, and phospholipids. It plays key roles in energy storage, insulation, and the formation of cell membranes. Some types of this biomolecule also serve as signaling molecules.

• Carbohydrates

• Lipids

• Proteins

• Nucleic Acids

This biomolecule consists of nucleotides, each containing a sugar, phosphate group, and nitrogenous base. It stores and transmits genetic information and is involved in the synthesis of proteins. It exists in two forms: one as a double-stranded helix, and the other as single-stranded molecules that help carry out genetic instructions.
