Definition
A molecule that can be bonded to other identical molecules to form a polymer.
This macromolecule builds bones and muscles. Organic molecule that is made of amino acids
joined by peptide bonds.
Monomer of a carbohydrate.
Molecules made from repeating units of monomers.
A subunit of nucleic acid formed from a simple sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous
base.
Protein that speeds up a biological reaction by lowering the activation energy needed to start
the reaction.
The specific region of an enzyme where a substrate binds and a chemical reaction occurs.
Any molecule that is present in living organisms such as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and
nucleic acids.
Carbon compound joined by peptide bonds; building block of protein.
Reactant to which an enzyme binds
This organic compound is used for long term energy storage. Also used as insulation and found
in cell membranes.
Minimum amount of energy needed for reactants to form products in a chemical reaction.
An acid that is naturally in fats and various oils. The monomer of Lipids.
Complex macromolecule that stores and communicates genetic information.
Biomolecule that supplies short term energy to the body.

Personal Goals:
*Your goal for the first test: _____________ %
*How will you achieve this?
*How are you adjusting to high school?
*What are some things you need help with? (for example: organization, study skills, etc.)
*** This unit is extremely important. We will be building every unit off of this Biomolecule unit… so don’t
forget it…it’s not going anywhere  There will be questions about this unit on every test.
