- The carbohydrates (CHOs), with a general formula of (CH₂O)n, are rich in hydroxyl groups. This allows the carbohydrates incredibly diversity of structure and function. Match the structural feature with the functional feature allowed. CHOs are useful for fast energy production. CHOs are widely used to mediate molecular recognition events. CHOS are widely used as structural materials. 1. 2. 3. Hydroxyl groups can interact extremely well with water. Hydroxyl groups can be extensively derivatized and functionalized. Hydroxyl groups allow CHOs to form extensive H-bonded networks.arrow_forwardAdd these terms to your concept map should include these concepts and details: - the main title should be macromolecules concept of biochemistry with the following major categories: Water, Carbohydrate, Proteins, Lipids→ include cell membranes, Nucleic Acids Your concept map should include these concepts and details: Structure (functional groups, shape); Monomer; building block molecules Linkage; Properties; Functions; Key terms from the Partial List of Key functional group polarity intermolecular forces of attraction hydrogen bond essential nutrient carbohydrate monosaccharide isomer glycosidic linkage monomer polymer disaccharide oligosaccharide polysaccharide intermolecular force of attraction hydrogen bond macronutrient essential amino acid amino acid side group/R-group peptide bond polypeptide receptor neurotransmitter hormone secondary structure tertiary structure quaternary…arrow_forwardCould you write me a paragraph on the importance of bonds and bonding in organisms.
