Concept Map Science

The document discusses the key biomolecules that make up living organisms. It describes the three main components of nucleotides, which are the building blocks of nucleic acids like DNA and RNA. Nucleic acids contain nitrogen bases, a 5-carbon sugar, and phosphate groups. Carbohydrates and proteins are also important biomolecules, with carbohydrates being the most abundant. Proteins are made of amino acids and perform important functions like enzyme catalysis, storage, structure, and transport. Lipids are insoluble in water but soluble in nonpolar solvents and include fats, oils, waxes, phospholipids and steroids.
