AP Biology: Macromolecules; Questions & Answers
100% Solved
Macromolecules Correct answer-Molecules composed of thousands of atoms: the four
main classes being carbohydrates, lipids, prteins, and nucleic acids




Polymer Correct answer-Chainlike molecules, consisting of many similar or identical
building blocks linked by covalent bonds.




Monomer Correct answer-Make up polymers: connected by covalent bonds.




Dehydration Synthesis Correct answer-(Condensation Reaction): Covalent bonds which
connect monomers have distinct functions: One monomer provides a hydroxyle group and the
other provides a hydrogen, creating water (as a biproduct) and a bond between the monomers.




Hydrolysis Correct answer-Adding water to reverse dehydration synthesis, so the polymer
recieves a hydrogen atom and a hydroxyl group




Carbohydrates Correct answer-A macromolecule made up of C, H and O, with a 2:1 ratio
between the hydrogen and oxygen.




Monosaccharides Correct answer-Simple sugars with 1 ring: Provides immediate energy,
classified by the amount of carbons




Disaccharides Correct answer-Double sugars with 2 rings

Starch Correct answer-During photosynthesis: glucose is a biproduct that is stored in
plastids and chloroplasts




Cellulose Correct answer-Made up cell walls of plants, using beta rings




Glycogen Correct answer-An animal polysaccharide. Human produces excess sugar, highly
branched. Humans and vertebrates store this in the liver and muscles
