monosaccharides
A chain of monomers is called a polymer, if it is sufficiently long. (We'd probably say something like trimer if there were only three.) Polymers can be formed by electrophilic addition, for instance polythene, or condensation, for instance a protein.
A membrane protein with a carbohydrate chain is called glycoprotein
C6H12O6 This is glucose and not only a carbohydrate ( consisting of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen ) by a sugar technically called a monosaccharide.
A phospholipid attached to a carbohydrate (sugar) chain is called a Glycolipid. -A protein attached to a carbohydrate is called a Glycoprotein.
Dehydration synthesis is the name for a reaction that links monomers to form a chain.
peptide bonds chain together the monomers of a protein (ergo called polypeptides).
A phospholipid attached to a carbohydrate (sugar) chain is called a Glycolipid.
A carbohydrate chain is one that is made of two to possibly hundreds of carbohydrate compounds that are called monosaccharides. When they are on membrane proteins they serve as recognition markers.
Addition polymer
Monomers are the building blocks that are used to make polymers. Remember: mono = one, poly = many Monomers are like the links in a chain and polymers are like the chain. Many chain links (monomers) make up a whole chain (polymer)
Molecules consisting of chains of repeating units are called polymers. Polymers are made up of smaller molecules that join to form these larger molecules. Examples of polymers include starch and nylon.
