    Define metabolism: The sum of all biological chemical reactions inside a cell or organism Differences in catabolism and anabolism: Catabolism is an enzyme-regulated chemical reaction that releases energy. Complex organic compounds such as glucose‚ amino acids‚ glycerol and fatty acids are broken down into simpler ones. The energy of catabolic reactions is used to drive the anabolic reactions. Anabolism is also enzyme regulated but requires energy for taking the simpler broken down components

    presence of starch‚ glucose‚ lipids‚ and proteins through the use of indicators: Sudan III‚ Lugol’s iodine‚ Benedict’s solution‚ and Biuret’s reagent. After testing the gelatin solution in the presence of the indicators‚ the results showed that Lugol’s reacted‚ turning orange-pink (oils) and the Biuret reagent (protein) reacted with the gelatin solution‚ turning lilac. Thus it was determined that the gelatin solution held both proteins as well as oils. Introduction: Lipids‚ nucleic acids‚ carbohydrates

    substance D was the lipid because it seemed thin and had a slightly yellow tint of color to it. 3. Research: In my research I was informed about facts and appearances of lipids. First of all lipids are non-polar compounds‚ thus they won’t dissolve in water. This is also known as being hydrophobic. They are made with one glycerol and 3 fatty acids attached‚ known as a triglyceride. Lipids also mostly consist of waxes‚ oils and sterols. The distinct differences between these lipids are simply stated

    talk about are carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ proteins and nucleic acids. I will explain what they do and what they are made of. Carbohydrates are in foods‚ some examples are sugars and starch. The structure of a carb is ring shaped‚ it is an easy one to know. The monomer of a carb is monosaccharide‚ which means one sugar. A monosaccharide consists of glucose‚ fructose and galactose. Carbs help give the body energy and help with storage. That is how Carbs help your body. Lipids are made up of fats‚ butter

    In biology‚ there are four major biological macromolecules that are found in the cell‚ carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ nucleic acid‚ and proteins. Biological macromolecules are also known as organic molecules. Biological macromolecules are very large molecules that are of a key importance to living organisms. Most biological macromolecules are built by joining smaller molecule subunits. Carbohydrates are large groups of organic compounds found in foods such as sugars‚ starches‚ glucose‚ fructose‚ galactose
