Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which type of macromolecules are enzymes?
A
Protein
B
Carbohydrate
C
Lipid
D
Nucleic Acid
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Answer and Explanation: Enzymes are protein macromolecules. Proteins are large biopolymer molecules that are made up of repeating monomer units called amino acids. There are 20 different common amino acids that make up proteins like enzymes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The type of macromolecule typically present in enzymes is protein. Proteins are macromolecules formed from smaller molecules called amino acids.

Detailed explanation-3: -Enzymes are proteins comprised of amino acids linked together in one or more polypeptide chains. This sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain is called the primary structure.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.

Detailed explanation-5: -Proteins are a class of macromolecules that perform a diverse range of functions for the cell. They help in metabolism by providing structural support and by acting as enzymes, carriers, or hormones. The building blocks of proteins (monomers) are amino acids.
