The four main classes of organic compounds (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids) that are essential to the proper functioning of all living things are known as polymers or macromolecules. All of these compounds are built primarily of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen but in different ratios. This gives each compound different properties. Carbohydrates are used by the body for energy and structural support in cell walls of plants and exoskeletons of insects and crustaceans. They are made of smaller subunits called nionosaccharides. Monosaccharides have carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen in a 1:2:1 ratio. Monosaccharides or simple sugars include glucose, galactose, and fructose. Although their chemical formulas are the same, they have different structural formulas. These simple sugars combine to make disaccharides (double sugars like sucrose) and polysaccharides (long chains like cellulose, chitin, and glycogen). Color code the glucose molecule on this worksheet (carbon-black, hydrogenyellow, and oxygen-red). Use your textbook to help draw the structural formulas for fructose and galactose:

Flauer [41]
Robert Steve and James are three new organisms ( lizard species ) Steve can breath under water he has scaly moist lizard skin a long strong tail and very sharp claws weighs 20 pounds and is 6ft long Steve prefers to eat small fish.

Robert can't breath under water has scaly dry lizard skin very sharp teeth and is very poisonous he has night vision weighs 5 pounds and is 2 ft long he mainly eats small bugs like lies and wasps.

James on the other hand is completely different he has is 10 feet long weighs 180pounds can run 5 miles per hour has powerful jaws that can break bones he has razor sharp teeth and claws and poisonous spit he has a smell radius of 15 miles and is a very heavy set he also prefers to eat big land animals like deer he's a Carnavor.

when lions pick off the slowest members of the herd they are hunting why is it beneficial to the group as a whole?
pav-90 [236]
If lions attack the slowest animal in a herd, it is beneficial to the herd in the following ways:

1.) Evolutionarily, the faster herd members survive and breed, increasing the speed of the offspring and guaranteeing better survival for the future population.
2.) The lions focus on the straggling animal, allowing the rest of the herd to escape.
3.) The death of one herd member ensures the survival of many more.
