Carbohydrates are composed of only Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen with there being 2 Hydrogen atoms for every 1 Oxygen atom (e.g, C6H12O6) where as proteins are composed of multiple amino acids linked together and are composed of Carbon, Oxygen, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, and Sulphur if the amino acid contains either the amino acid Cysteine or Methionine.

i think of perhaps association ability the order the atoms are in. For examples, carbohydrates may well be carbon first, hydrogen 2d with double the quantity of carbon, and oxygen final with an identical quantity of carbon (so fairly explaining its type (carbohydrates are C6 H12 O6) varieties or catagories might me mono,poly and di saccarides for carbohydrates makes use of together or by varieties must be how its used. Carbohydrates are an potential molecule, lipids are for storage i think of etc etc i desire this enables ! stable success :)

Carbohydrates are either simple sugars, compounds of C, H, and O; or more complex molecules of simple sugars linked through ether (-C-O-C-) bonds. Proteins are composed of alpha-amino acids, compounds of C, H, O, and N, linked through amide (-CONH-) bonds.
