The macromolecules are a subset of organic molecules (any carbon-containing liquid, solid, or gas) that are especially important for life. The fundamental component for all of these macromolecules is carbon.

It discusses how the presence of different groups around carbon can lead to enantiomers, using alanine as an example of L- and D- formations, emphasizing the predominance of L amino acids in protein synthesis. Chirality's importance is highlighted, noting that a protein's functionality depends on its shape.
