Best Answer

When two amino acids are positioned so that the carboxyl group of one is adjacent to the amino group of the other, they can become joined by a dehydration reaction (removal of a water molecule.) The resulting covalent bond is called a peptide bond.

Amino acids are monomers used to build what?

A monomer is a small molecule that can easily bind to others. Amino acids are monomers, because they bond together to form proteins, which are polymers. Another example of a monomer is glucose, but it can bind to form polymers like cellulose.

Amino acids used to assemble your protein in order?

Proteins are made of Amino Acid "polymers" where each amino acid is like a link in a (polymer) chain. When you eat proteins your digestion system breaks them down into amino acids. The amino acids (flexible building blocks) are then absorbed into your body, and they are used to build (assemble) your proteins.
