How is structure of carbon related to its function in macromolecules?
a carbon structure is the same shape as a macromolecule
Which organelle or structure contains enzymes that function best at acidic pH values?
The lysosome
How are proteins denatured in an organic solvent?
Enzymes and proteins. Denaturation unravels them, ruining their structure and therefore their function.
What is the basic structure of a macromolecules?
It is called a monomer. Monomers together form polymer.
Does the principle of complementarity of structures and function means that the structure of a part reflects its fuction?
Function reflects structure and structure determines function

How is the structure of carbon related to its function in macromolecules?

Where is a macromolecule located in the body?
Macromolecules are large molecules. Macromolecules are found in the proteins, carbohydrates, nucleic acid, and lipids in the body. Macromolecules are essential to the structure and function of a cell.
Which organelle or structure contains enzymes that function best at acidic pH values?
The lysosome
What has the author Nola L Fuller written?
Nola L. Fuller has written: 'The role of water in determining structure and function of macromolecules and macromolecular assemblies'
What is macromolecules function?
Making muscle tissue
What is a macromolecules function?
Making muscle tissue
Why doesn't the pH partition hypothesis really apply to macromolecules?
Macromolecules may be absorbed by pinocytosis. This mechanism does not require the material to be in solution form for absorption.
What is the function of a Lysosomes in a plant cell?
hydrolyzes the macromolecules
What function is a protein macromolecules?
Making muscle tissue
How are proteins denatured in an organic solvent?
Enzymes and proteins. Denaturation unravels them, ruining their structure and therefore their function.
Why does pepsin not function well at a pH of 7?
Enzimes are sensitive to pH and function best across a narrow range of pH.
