Detection of Biological Molecules Introduction: Without carbon‚ nitrogen‚ hydrogen‚ sulfur‚ oxygen and phosphorus‚ life wouldn’t exist. These are the most abundant elements in living organisms. These elements are held together by covalent bonds‚ ionic bonds‚ hydrogen bonds‚ and disulfide bonds. Covalent bonds are especially strong‚ thus‚ are present in monomers‚ the building blocks of life. These monomers combine to make polymers‚ which is a long chain of monomers strung together. Biological molecules

The Biological Structure of Water Water is a substance with the chemical formula H2O: one molecule of water has two hydrogen atoms covalently bonded to a single oxygen atom. Its structure enables it to carry out many important functions in the body. Water molecules are charged‚ with the oxygen atom being slightly negative and the hydrogen atoms being slightly positive. These opposite charges attract each other‚ forming hydrogen bonds. These are weak‚ long distance bonds that are very common and
