As these molecules are vital for life, metabolic reactions either focus on making these molecules during the construction of cells and tissues, or on breaking them down and using them to obtain energy, by their digestion. These biochemicals can be joined to make [[polymer]]s such as [[DNA]] and [[protein]]s, essential [[macromolecules]] of life.<br /> {| class=&quot;wikitable&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot;<br /> !Type of molecule<br /> !Name of [[monomer]] forms<br /> !Name of [[polymer]] forms<br /> !Examples of polymer forms<br /> |- style=&quot;text-align:center;&quot; <br /> ||[[Amino acid]]s<br /> ||Amino acids<br /> ||[[Protein]]s (made of polypeptides)<br /> ||[[Fibrous protein]]s and [[globular protein]]s<br /> |- style=&quot;text-align:center;&quot; <br /> ||[[Carbohydrate]]s<br /> ||[[Monosaccharide]]s<br /> ||[[Polysaccharide]]s<br /> ||[[Starch]], [[glycogen]] and [[cellulose]]<br /> |- style=&quot;text-align:center;&quot; <br /> ||[[Nucleic acid]]s<br /> ||[[Nucleotide]]s<br /> ||[[Polynucleotide]]s<br /> ||[[DNA]] and [[RNA]]<br /> |}</div>
