This is a molecule of glucose, a simple carbohydrate. If this molecule were broken down, would it provide all of the elements needed to assemble lipids, nucleic acids, or proteins? Use evidence from the diagram in your answer



Answer :

No, it wouldn't provide all the elements needed to assemble lipids, nucleic acids or proteins.

As in the diagram, the breakdown of glucose molecules will release hydrogen, carbon and oxygen.

As we know that Carbohydrates and lipids are made of only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen (CHO). Proteins are made of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen (CHON).

Biomolecules contain elements like carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen, sulfur, and phosphorus. Among these  carbon, nitrogen and hydrogen are  found in all biomolecules. Hydrolysis reactions use water to breakdown polymers into monomers, Hydrolysis reactions break bonds and release energy.
