The polymers of food are broken down into their constituent monomers by reactions in the digestive tract?
Energy, by cellular respiration. Polymers of glucose, for instance, come into the body via your food and enzymes break them into monomers so they can be easily used in the cellular respiration process.
What is the source of monosaccharides?
Monosaccharides are produced through the reduction of di-/polysaccharides in the case of animals. Plants on the other hand, produce monosaccharides (glucose) through photosynthesis. They take the monomers and bond them together into starch for storage. The starch is the energy that animals and humans acquire during consumption. We then follow through with the digestion process which breaks the glycosidic linkages between monomers in order to utilize the glucose.
What happens during a hydrolysis reaction.?
During hydrolysis, water (H2O) reacts with a bond and donates H to one side and OH to the other, thus breaking the bond and resulting in 2 new compounds out of the one that was just hydrolyzed. For example, take R-COO-R' + H2O ==> R-COOH + HO-R'
What is the role of hydrolysis in the relationships between monosaccharides disaccharides and polyssacharides?
Hydrolysis involes splitting a molecule into smaller fragments with the addition of water. During the process, -H and -OH are added to these smaller fragments. The disaccharides (i.e. two sugars) are split into two monosaccharides (i.e. single sugars). The polysaccharides (i.e. multiple sugars) are spilt into disaccharides. This process of hydrolysis depends on enzyme control in organisms.
What is the difference between diamond chip and solid diamond?
Diamond chip is just that, chips of real diamond cut off during the shaping process.
Is water released when a peptide bond between two amino acids is broken?
No, a water molecule is released during condensation(dehydration) reactions. There are two opposite reactions: hydrolysis and condensation. Hydrolysis breaks apart polymers into monomers. In the process, water molecules are broken apart to "cap" the ends of the monomers. In condensation reactions, two monomers are joined and a molecule of water is formed and removed.

How are monomers of organic compounds joined to form the macromolecules?
Monomers group together to form a macromolecule during a process known as polymerization. During this process the indivudual monomers give off a gas which enables them to form a macromolecule.
What happens during hydrolysis?
polymers are broken up into separate monomers. The bonds are broken as water is added.Read more: http://wiki.answers.com/What_happens_during_a_hydrolysis_reaction#ixzz1jZr7nspK
What is the process in which alkene monomers join to form chains?
Addition polymerization which forms only polymer as the single product
What is the basic process of digestion during which water molecules are added back into polymers to separate them into their smaller monomers so they can be absorbed?
Hydrolysis
What is broken between base pairs during transcription?
The hydrogen bonds between base pairs are broken
During which process are food broken molecules broken down to produce chemical potential energy in the form of ATP?
Cellular respiration
What bonds are broken and reformed during a physical process?
just think really hard

During CPR which bone can be broken in the sternum area?
The bone that may break is the xiphoid process.
What is the process in which sugar is formed in photosynthesis are broken into simpler molecules?
During cellular respiration the sugars formed during photosynthesis are broken into simpler molecules. These simpler molecules are carbon dioxide and water.
