Carbohydrates - contain CHO (carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen)
Carbohydrates - contain CHO (carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen)
Lipids (fats) - contain CHO (carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen)

Proteins - contain CHON (carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen and sometimes sulfur)
Proteins - contain CHON (carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen and sometimes sulfur)
Nucleic Acids - contain CHONP (carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus)
Nucleic Acids - contain CHONP (carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus)
Look at each of the figures below and tell me which macromolecule is represented by each.

You probably have two which are a little confusing, because both have only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Do a little research and then come tell me how you can tell them apart.

Remember that this is enrichment, so it cannot hurt your grade; it can only help.

When you are finished, schedule a time to meet with me to review your lab and pictures. If you have a good understanding of the material, I will give you a short lab analysis to prove it.
