Introduction<\/strong><\/h1>\r\n

There are four major classifications of biological compounds:<\/p>\r\n\r\n

    \r\n \t
  1. \r\n

    Carbohydrates<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n \t

  2. \r\n

    Proteins<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n \t

  3. \r\n

    Lipids<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n \t

  4. \r\n

    Nucleic Acids<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n

    Each major classification can be divided into subgroups<\/strong> that correspond to monomers<\/strong> and polymers<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
