Protein Monomer: Amino Acid

Lipids are fats. Lipids are Fatty Acids.

Saturated: Bad And from Animals.

Unsaturated: Good and from Plants.

Trans: Bad.

Peptide Bonds: Hold amino acids together.

Glycerol is attached to 3 Fatty Acids to make a triglyceride.

Hey Carl, Carbohydrates monomers are Monosaccharide; Which means "1 Sugar". Many Monosaccharides are called polysaccharides; Meaning "Many Sugars".

Thank you dad!
