Before we finish this part of the Activity, you’re going to begin summarizing what you’ve learned using a graphic organizer.
In this part there were 4 terms highlighted. These are all terms to describe biological molecules. We will learn more in the coming Activities.
For now, organize them in the way that makes most sense for you. Include details from this Activity as you use vocabulary related to biochemistry to describe biological molecules.
