How do proteins differ from lipids and carbohydrates?
The difference between Carbohydrates (sugars) and Lipids: 1) sugars disolve in water lipids don't 2) sugars are made-up of subunits that form large polymers and lipids are not and don't form polymers. 3)Lipids store more energy than sugars. 4) sugars form stuctural components (cellulose in plants) and lipids form bountaries like the cell membrane due to hydrophobic hydrocarbons.
Are lipids similar to water molecules?
Lipids are hydrophobic or ambiphilic small molecules. In water, hydrophobic lipids such as oils and fats clump up and separate from the water. In water, ambiphilic lipids such as phospholipids form bilayer structures; the body of living creatures uses these bilayer structures to form cell membranes and vesicles.
