Proteins |
Lipids |
Large molecules composed of one or more chains of amino acids in a specific order determined by the base sequence of nucleotides in the DNA coding for the protein. Proteins are required for the structure, function, and regulation of the body's cells, tissues, and organs.
|
Lipids are organic compounds that contain hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen atoms, which forms the framework for the structure and function of living cells.

Carbohydrates |
Nucleic Acids |
Carbohydrates are macronutrients and are one of the three main ways by which our body obtains its energy. They are called carbohydrates as they comprise carbon, hydrogen and oxygen at their chemical level. Carbohydrates are essential nutrients which include sugars, fibers and starches.
|
Nucleic acid is a chain of nucleotides which stores genetic information in biological systems. It creates DNA and RNA, which store the information needed by cells to create proteins.

Strengths A strength for our team was efficient and knew exactly what we were doing. We each took on a part of the project and took data, we communicated very well!
|
Challenges A challenge for our group was we were short on time meaning we had to go quickly but still able to do the lab correctly and precisely, thankfully everything workout well!
