Text SolutionText solutionverified iconVerified

Macromolecules are large complex molecules present in the colloidal state in the intercellular fluid. They are formed by the condensation of low molecular weight micromolecules and hence, are polymeric in nature.
Polysaccharides, proteins, and nucleic acids are common examples of macromolecules.
