Biomolecules
Across
- 3. A macromolecule composed of many repeating structural units called monomers, they are connected by chemical bonds.
- 5. Organic molecule produced by a living organism, 4 major types of them.
- 6. Specialized biological catalysts, typically proteins, that speed up chemical reactions.
- 8. A molecule that is present in the majority of living organisms and viruses, it is made up of nucleotides.
- 9. Contains the code for making proteins and tells cells what to do.
Down
- 1. They are key components of the plasma membrane, their monomers are fatty acids and glycerol.
- 2. Their role is expression and storage of genomic information.
- 3. The monomer is an amino acid and they have many roles in the cell.
- 4. A molecule that can be bonded to other identical molecules to form a polymer.
- 7. They act as an energy source, their monomer is monosaccharides.
