What reaction builds one large molecule by combining multiple molecules?

This is a polymerization reaction.


What name is given to large organic molecules that are found in organisms?

Macromolecule from biological polymerization can be called Bio-polymers.


What chemical reaction formed these large molecules?

Large organic molecules (macromolecules) are generally formed by condensation reactions between smaller molecules.Condensation means that a small molecule is formed from the atoms removed during the reaction. In cells, the small molecule is water, so the type of condensation reaction is dehydration.Examples:glucose + (chain of n glucose residues) forms chain of n + 1 residues + wateramino acid + (chain of n amino acid residues) forms chain of n + 1 residues + water


Large organic molecules are usually assembled by polymerization of a few kinds of repeating simple subunits what is an exception to this statement?

An exception to this statement is the assembly of lipid molecules, such as fats and oils, which are not formed by polymerization of repeating subunits but rather by condensation reactions between individual fatty acid molecules and glycerol molecules. Lipids do not form polymers in the same way that proteins, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates do.

Is macromolecule organic or inorganic?

It can be either. The word just means large molecule.


Giant organic molecule made of small molecules linked together?

No, it is one molecule.However some large organic molecules (i.e. polymers) are formed from small organic molecules (i.e. monomers) that bond together into long chains, forming one new large molecule. The small molecules no longer exist as individual molecules after bonding into the large molecule.


What is the Process by which large compounds are constructed?

Polymerization

Is cortisone inorganic or organic?

Cortisone is large organic molecule found in human body. It has four carbon rings, one five membered and rest are six membered.


Building large molecules from smaller ones?

Large molecules can be built from smaller ones through a process called polymerization. Polymerization involves linking smaller molecules, called monomers, together to form long chains known as polymers. This process can be achieved through various methods, such as condensation polymerization and addition polymerization. By combining different monomers in specific ways, a wide range of large molecules with diverse properties can be created.
