Introduction to carbohydrates (saccharides). Monomers and polymers. Glucose and glycogen.
High school biology
Biological macromolecules
There's an old saying, "You are what you eat." In some senses, this is literally true! When we eat food, we take in the large biological molecules found in the food, including carbohydrates, proteins, lipids (such as fats), and nucleic acids (such as DNA), and use them to power our cells and build our bodies. Review the different types of macromolecules and what they are made up of.
Topic: Science
Learn about all the sciences, from physics, chemistry and biology, to cosmology and astronomy, across hundreds of videos, articles and practice questions.
