Macromolecules- uniquely built by organisms and carry info to create more living things. Bacteria need carbon sources for matter and enrgy. Silicon is the next element to carbon that is a stable life form. Bigger macromolecules are categorized by functional groups. Amino acids have two parts, an amino group and a carboxyl group. The structure can help you determine the function functional groups are involved in reactions. Simple change in one functional group can make a big difference. Minor differences when looking at it from a chemical structure because those two molecules determine whether or not you are male or female. Macromolecules are very large molecules produced by biological organisms. Are polymers which are smaller monomers that are covalently bonded. All organisms make these 4 types of macromolecule the same way.
