Glutamate (glutamic acid), is the only one of which that contain an acidic functional group (carboxylic acid). Arginine is basic while proline and glycine considered non-polar.

Cellulose is a polysaccharide (a sugar). Glucose is the monosaccharide used to generate the structure of cellulose via linkages. Cellulose is composed of several hundred glucose molecules bound in this chain. Due to the nature of the beta linkage, humans cannot digest cellulose.

Phospholipids have two fatty acid tails made of hydrocarbons, which are nonpolar, and a phosphate head, which is polar. Their structure allows phospholipids to group up into a bilayer such that the polar heads face the outside environment while the non-polar fatty tails face inward, protected from the aqueous environment. Phospholipids are not completely polar or non-polar, they are amphiphathic.
