A polymer can be made up of thousands of monomer.
This linking up of monomers is called polymerization
What else can I help you with?
Two different monomers join each other to from what?
Technically, a diomer. Practically speaking, a polymer
A protein disk that attaches two chromatids to each other in a chromosome is called a?
centromter
Why are Nucleic acids proteins and other large biological molecules are known as polymers?
Nucleic acids, proteins, and other large biological molecules are known as polymers because they are composed of repeating units called monomers. These monomers are linked together through covalent bonds to form long chains, giving the molecules their complex structure and functions in living organisms.
How could two four-sugar oligosaccharides be structurally different even if both consist of two glucose monomers and two galactose monomers?
The structural difference could arise from the specific arrangement of glucose and galactose monomers within each oligosaccharide. For example, in one oligosaccharide, the glucose monomers could be linked to each other first, followed by the two galactose monomers. In the other oligosaccharide, the galactose monomers could be linked first, followed by the two glucose monomers. This difference in monomer arrangement leads to distinct chemical properties and biological functions in the oligosaccharides.
What is the name of the reactions that join monomers together to form polymers?
Polymerization reactions are the reactions that join monomers together to form polymers. These reactions involve the bonding of monomers through the formation of covalent bonds to create a larger molecule.
What other necessary molecule goes into cellular respiration?
Aside from O2 we need -CH2- monomers; these are sourced from each of proteins, lipids, and sugars.
If the monomers are amino acids they may differ from each other by their?
If the monomers are amino acids, they may differ from each other by their side chains, also known as R-groups. These side chains can vary in size, shape, charge, and chemical properties, which influence the overall structure and function of the protein they form.
Two different monomers joined to each other form?
A polymer. Polymers are macromolecules formed by joining monomers together through chemical bonds, creating long chains or structures. This process, known as polymerization, can lead to the formation of various types of polymers with different properties and functions.
What makes DNA a polymer?
DNA is a polymer because it is made of up of monomers of nucleotides that differ from each other by their bases. (Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine.)
Why don't lipids have monomers?
Lipids do not have monomers because they are made up of diverse molecules like fatty acids, glycerol, and other components, rather than repeating units like monomers found in polymers.
A small molecule that joins with other small molecules to form a polymer?
All polymers are formed from monomers joining together.
How many monomers make up an antibody molecule?
Four monomers. Each antibody contains 2 light chains and 2 heavy chains.
