Explanation of Solution
The four major categories of biomolecules which are explained in the chapter are carbohydrates, protein, vitamin and nucleic acids.
The carbohydrate is one of the basic components of food and is also termed as saccharides. It is composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. The chemical structure of carbohydrate is composed of polyhydroxy
Protein is the
The biomolecules which cannot be produced by the human body and must be supplied in small amounts in diet to perform the specific biological functions for the life, growth, and health of human beings and animal organism are referred to as vitamins.
The biopolymers which are present in the living system are known as nucleic acids. They are also termed as the polynucleotide because in their structural formula the repeating unit is
Conclusion:
The four major categories of biomolecules which are explained in the chapter are carbohydrates, protein, vitamin and nucleic acids.
