Question

Does sugar molecules provide all elements needed to make four types of macromolecules?

Answer 1

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Sugars provide all the elements necessary for the formation of a macromolecule, carbohydrates. Although sugars can also be found in nucleic acids, their composition depends on other molecules that are not supplied by sugars.

Sugars are the carbohydrate-forming molecules, which are very important in our diet. In fact, the amount of sugar present in carbohydrates, forms classes called monosaccharides (one sugar), osids (hydrolyzable sugars), disaccharides (two sugars) and polysaccharides.

Answer 2

Sugar molecules does not provide all elements needed to make four types of macromolecules.

The four types of macromolecules that exist in nature with their component elements are:

1. Proteins: carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur
2. Carbohydrate: carbon, hydrogen, oxygen
3. Lipids: carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, nitrogen, etc
4. Nucleic acids: carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, phosphorus

Sugar in itself is a form of carbohydrate and thus, only contains carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen as its component elements. These 3 elements fall short of the number required to make the the other 3 macromolecules.
