Q. Grinding of a living tissue in trichloroacetic acid shows the presence of the inorganic compounds like sulphate, phosphate, etc., which are categorised as

Biomolecules

Solution:

After grinding a living tissue in trichloroacetic acid the inorganic compounds like sulphate, phosphate, etc., are present in acid soluble fraction. This fraction consists of biomicromolecules (i.e. amino acids, nucleotides, etc.) anid inorganic compounds. The acid insoluble fraction consists of biomacromolecules (i.e. proteins, nucleic acids, etc).
