This is a molecule of glucose, a simple carbohydrate. if this molecule were broken down, would it provide all of the elements needed to assemble lipids, nucleic acids, or proteins? use evidence from the diagram in your answer.

No, it wouldn't provide all the elements needed to assemble lipids, nucleic acids or proteins.

Explanation:

As it can be seen from the diagram, the breakdown of glucose molecules will release hydrogen, carbon and oxygen. All these elements are needed to make lipids, proteins and nucleic acids. But apart from these elements, other elements are also required for the making of these compounds. For example, nucleic acid would require the elements nitrogen and phosphorus apart from carbon, hydrogen and oxygen for its making. Proteins would need nitrogen, sulphur and selenium apart from carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

If this molecule were broken down it would not provide all of the elements needed to assemble lipids, nucleic acids, or proteins because those compounds need other elements such as Phosphorus, Sulfur, and Nitrogen.

In this image, there is a carbohydrate made up of 6 carbon molecules, 12 hydrogen molecules, and 6 oxygen molecules. This shows that carbohydrates are made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

These three elements are in other substances such as lipids, nucleic acids, and proteins. But these are not its only components:

Lipids: Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen, and in some cases Sulfur, Phosphorus, and Nitrogen.

Nucleic acids: Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Phosphorus.

Proteins: Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen and Nitrogen and in some cases Sulfur and Phosphorus.

According to the above, it can be inferred that if this carbohydrate is broken, a lipid, nucleic acid, or protein cannot be formed because other elements are needed.
