Answer:

In creating this list, one will have to start from the atom (which is the smallest in the list) to the giant polymer (which is the largest in the group). The arrangement below will also be based on there molecular weight.

oxygen molecule (this is the first because it is an atom)

water molecule (this is lighter in weight than carbon dioxide)

carbon dioxide

amino acid molecule (most amino acids have a lesser molecular weight than glucose)

glucose (has a molecular weight of 180.156 g/mol)

protein molecule (several proteins have a lesser molecular weight than starch)

starch molecule (has a molecular weight of 359.33 g/mol)
