Biomolecules are organic molecules that are essential to the structure and function of living organisms, including proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids. They play critical roles in biological processes such as catalysis, signaling, and structural support, and are fundamental to understanding cellular and molecular biology.
