What else can I help you with?
Is proteins a polymers?
Yes it is a polymer because they are made up of molecules called Amino Acids.
What Molecules that are made of smaller molecules called amino acids are called?
monomer
What smaller molecules make protein molecules?
Smaller molecules called amino acids make protein molecules.
Protein is a chain of linked smaller molecules called?
Proteins are made from long chains of smaller molecules called amino acids. Amino acids are biologically important organic compounds that are composed of amine and carboxylic acid.
What is a polymer that contains many different molecules of amino acids?
Even though there are some variants among biochemists, we can consider this: a chain or polymer consisted of 2 to 10 or 12 amino acids is called a peptide. A polymer formed by 12 to 20 or 25 amino acid chain is called a polypeptide. And a polymer of more than 20 or 25 amino acids is called a protein.
What is a protein chain of linked smaller molecules called?
amino acids or lipids? Amino acids
Is fat a polymer?
polymer
A general process which breaks down large molecules into smaller ones?
The process you are referring to is called catabolism. Catabolism involves breaking down large molecules into smaller ones, releasing energy in the process. This process is essential for producing energy and building blocks for anabolic reactions in cells.
The smaller unit molecules which combine to form proteins and polypeptides are called?
amino acids
The smaller unit molecules which combine to form proteins and polypeptides are called what?
The smaller unit molecules that combine to form proteins and polypeptides are called amino acids. Amino acids are linked together through peptide bonds to form chains that ultimately fold into functional protein structures.
Glucose molecules are to starch as what are to lipids?
This is an analogy between the molecular components of two different macromolecules. Glucose molecules compose starch, and its correspondent to proteins would be amino acids to solve this question.
What is the breakdown of large molecules into smaller ones be absorbed by the cells called?
The breakdown of large molecules into smaller ones to be absorbed by cells is called digestion. This process involves the breakdown of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats into their smaller components (such as glucose, amino acids, and fatty acids) that can be readily absorbed and used by the body.
