Explanation / Answer

All the circled answers are correct except for

Question 20. The answer is C. Proteins are not composed of nucleic acids, but are made up of amino acids joined by peptide bonds.

Question 22. Has no right answer. Carbohydrates make up only 5 % of the average human body mass, while proteins and fat make up 17% each. Water makes up 60% of the body.
