these are any chemical compound that has carbon in it
these include carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids, lipids

Answer 2

organic molecules

Question 3

building blocks that make up polymers

Answer 3

monomers

Question 4

why aren’t lipids considered polymers?

Answer 4

because lipids are connected from another molecule, unlike polymers that are connected by repeated bonds

made up of glucose joined by 1,4 bond

Answer 25

synthesis of glycogen

Question 26

what happens when there is too much glucose in glycogen?

Answer 26

glycogen will be stored in the liver, muscle cells, and fat cells. this is the reason for weight gain
