Macromolecules: What cells are made of. CA BIOLOGY STANDARD: Students know most macromolecules (polysaccharides, nucleic acids, proteins, lipids) in cells.
Fossilization. I. Possess hard parts II. Get buried III. Become preserved over the long term –Permineralization - petrification, precipitation of minerals.
Lipids. LIPIDS C, H, O More hydrogen than carbohydrates. Insoluble in water, soluble in organic solvents (alcohols, acetone, chloroform etc) .
