Textbook Question
Chapter 14, Problem 91TE
Many of the natural product molecules synthesized by photosynthetic plants are formed by the
joining together of isoprene monomers via an addition
nutrient beta-carotene. How many isoprene units are needed to make one beta-carotene
molecule? (Hint: Count the carbons in each.) Find and circle these units within the beta-carotene
structure shown here.
