Fill in the missing information in the table below by selecting the appropriate answer from the drop-down menu.

\begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|c|}
\hline
\multicolumn{4}{|c|}{\textbf{Macromolecules}} \\
\hline
\textbf{} & \textbf{Carbohydrates} & \textbf{Proteins} & \textbf{Nucleic Acids} \\
\hline
Elements in Molecules & carbon, hydrogen, oxygen & A & B \\
\hline
Building Block & C & D & E \\
\hline
\end{tabular}



Answer :

To correctly fill in the information missing in the table, we need to ensure that each placeholder corresponds accurately to the correct information from the given result.

1. For Proteins (A):
- Elements in molecules: We know that proteins contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen.
- Therefore, A should be carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen.

2. For Nucleic Acids (B):
- Elements in molecules: Nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA, contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus.
- Therefore, B should be carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus.

3. For Carbohydrates:
- Building Block: Carbohydrates are made up of monosaccharides.
- Therefore, C should be monosaccharides.

4. For Proteins (D):
- Building Block: Proteins are made up of amino acids.
- Therefore, D should be amino acids.

5. For Nucleic Acids (E):
- Building Block: Nucleic acids are made up of nucleotides.
- Therefore, E should be nucleotides.

By filling in the table with this information, we get:

```
\begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|c|}
\hline \multicolumn{4}{|c|}{\begin{tabular}{c}
Carbo- \\
hydrates
\end{tabular} Proteins \begin{tabular}{c}
Nucleic \\
Acids
\end{tabular}} \\
\hline \begin{tabular}{l}
Elements in \\
Molecules
\end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}{c}
carbon \\
hydrogen \\
oxygen
\end{tabular} & carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen & carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus \\
\hline \begin{tabular}{l}
Building \\
Block
\end{tabular} & monosaccharides & amino acids & nucleotides \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
```

So the completed table has:
- A: carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen
- B: carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus
- C: monosaccharides
- D: amino acids
- E: nucleotides

DONE!
