2026 FULL QUESTIONS AND CORRECT
ANSWERS
◉Macromolecules. Answer: large biomolecules
◉Molecular mass of a Macromolecule. Answer: 5,000 g/mol or
greater
◉What are daltons used for?. Answer: Larger molecules use Daltons
for mass. 1 Da = 1 g/mol
◉Larger molecules develop more complex structures. T or F.
Answer: T
◉What is 25,000 Da in Kilodaltons. Answer: 25 kDa
◉Monomers. Answer: Single, smallest building block used to build
macromolecules.
, ◉What is the monomer of DNA? Of proteins? Of carbohydrates?.
Answer: Nucleotide; Amino Acids; Sugar molecule
◉Supramolecular Complexes. Answer: A complex of two or more
macromolecules that routinely interact to function in the cell
◉What is the purpose of a supramolecular complex?. Answer: The
macromolecules retain individual units but stick to one another for a
time to accomplish a task and then often break apart once the job is
done.
◉All cells are defined by a _____. Answer: Plasma membrane (or
cellular membrane)
◉What is the plasma membrane made of?. Answer: Lipids and non-
polar proteins, making it impermeable to water, ions, and large
molecules.
◉Prokaryotes vs. Eukaryotes. Answer: Prokaryotes include bacteria
and other single celled organisms. Eukaryotes are the larger
multicellular organisms that include algae, fungi, plants, and
animals.
