Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What are the four macromolecules?
A
proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids
B
monosaccharides, lipids, polysaccaharides, and proteins
C
RNA, DNA, proteins, and carbohydrates
D
proteins, DNA, RNA, and steroids
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -These are the carbohydrates, lipids (or fats), proteins, and nucleic acids. All of the major macromolecule classes are similar, in that, they are large polymers that are assembled from small repeating monomer subunits.

Detailed explanation-2: -Monomers are the building blocks of the four basic macromolecules of life-monosaccharides are the monomers of carbohydrates, amino acids are the monomers of proteins, glycerol/fatty acids are the monomers of lipids, and nucleotides are the monomers of DNA.

Detailed explanation-3: -Proteins, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and lipids are the four major classes of biological macromolecules-large molecules necessary for life that are built from smaller organic molecules. Macromolecules are made up of single units known as monomers that are joined by covalent bonds to form larger polymers.

Detailed explanation-4: -There are four classes of macromolecules (polysaccharides or carbohydrates, triglycerides or lipids, polypeptides or proteins, and nucleic acids such as DNA & RNA). Carbohydrates and lipids are made of only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen (CHO). Proteins are made of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen (CHON).
