What is the process of putting 2 glucose together?

Maltose is formed when two glucose molecules are bond together. A water molecule is removed in this process. This type of reactions are called condensation reactions.


What by which process sugar molecules be bonded together?

The process is dehydration+synthesis.


Synthesis and decomposition reactions in an organism are called .?

All of the decomposition reactions in an organism taken together is called catabolism, while the synthesis reactions are called anabolism.


What 2 things are implied with the term dehydration synthesis?

dehydration - loss of water form something synthesis - making something (joining things together) form two or more components


Why are polymerization reations sometimes called dehydration synthesis reaction?

Not all polymerisations can be called dehydration synthesis reactions. However it is a very common way in which polymers can be formed. One way monomer units can join together is by eliminating a small molecule such as water between them, hence dehydration. (Condensation is more usual). Synthesis means building up, so the polymer is built up by losing water.

How can be dehydration synthesis reversed?

In chemistry, condensation reactions are when covalent bonds are formed between molecules and a water molecule is generated as a byproduct. The reverse of this process is hydrolysis, whereby water is consumed in order to cleave a covalent bond.

Is an example of dehydration synthesis?

An example of dehydration synthesis would be two monosaccharide's joining together. For example, glucose and fructose. Another word for synthesis is combination.
