Chitin: It is the second most abundant organic substance. In chitin the basic unit is a nitrogen containing glucose derivative known as N-acetyl glucosamine. The exoskeletons of arthropods and cell wall of fungi have chitin.

Collagen is the most abundant animal protein and is the chief component of connective tissue. Proteins are the biopolymers made up of monomeric amino acids joined by amide linkage or peptide bond.

Malonate is the competitive inhibitor of the enzyme succinic dehydrogenase.
