Proteins are polymers of amino acids. The instructions for protein synthesis are contained within the genes (on DNA). This instructions are read from an mRNA at the ribosomes to produce the correct sequence of amino acids - a protein.

When do cells make protein molecules?

Cells use genes to make proteins for critical jobs like carrying oxygen and contracting muscles. This is called protein synthesis.


What are the smaller parts that make up proteins starch and DNA?

The single units of polymers such as proteins, starch and DNA are called monomers.


What are large molecules made up of small molecules called?

AnswerIt can be a peptide, if it is of medium size, and the biggest is a protein molecule. A large molecule made up of amino acids may also be an enzyme.


Is protein a macromolecule?

Protein macromolecules basically build all cells and make them work. Enzymes are also proteins. Without protein, you'd be very unhealthy and you wouldn't have any new cells and they wouldn't function quite so well!


The individual molecules that make up polymers are called?

Monomers. These are smaller units that bond together to form long chains known as polymers through a process called polymerization.


What are extremely small units of matter?

Molecules, and atoms that make up molecules. An atom is made of smaller particles called protons, electrons, and neutrons. Smaller to this are groups such as fermions, Hadrons, Bosons


What the structure of the molecules that make protein?

Amino acids.


How does the stomach protease enzyme function in the process of breaking down proteins during digestion?

The stomach protease enzyme works by breaking down proteins into smaller molecules called peptides. It does this by breaking the bonds between the amino acids that make up the protein molecules. This process helps to make the proteins easier to digest and absorb in the body.


Does protein make actin and myosin?

Actin and myosin are proteins. Protein is a broad category of molecules.
