Nucleic acids, crucial macromolecules for life, were first discovered in cell nuclei and exhibit acidic properties. DNA and RNA, composed of nucleotide building blocks, store hereditary information.

Video transcript - [Voiceover] Let's study the molecular structure of triglycerides. And in everyday language we often call these fats. We often call these fats. Which is often kind of a feared word but …

Nucleic acids, macromolecules made out of units called nucleotides, come in two naturally occurring varieties: deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA).

Overview of carbohydrates, including structure and properties of monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides.

Describe how essential elements—carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur—combine to create biological macromolecules that support structure, energy flow, and function.

And because of that unsaturated fat, and specially polyunsaturated fats, these double bonds they tend to form these kinks in the structure which keep the molecules from getting really, really dense which …

The overall three-dimensional structure of a polypeptide is called its tertiary structure. The tertiary structure is primarily due to interactions between the R groups of the amino acids that make up the …
