BIOL 1020 Lecture Notes - Dehydration Reaction, Saturated Fat, Nucleic Acid Double Helix

Please write clear

1. what are the Properties of inorganic and organic molecules

2. What is buffer? How does our body regulate change in internal (body fluid) pH?

3. what are the functions of macromolecules (Lipids, Carbohydrates, Proteins, Nucleic acid)

The four main biological molecules (carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids and lipids) are all carbon-containing (organic) molecules.

1. Do they all qualify as polymers? Explain.

2. List one property of carbon that allows it to form so many structurally diverse molecules.
