During the formation of new bonds within a polypeptide, a molecule of water (H2O) is removed. This process is known as dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction, in which a hydroxyl (OH) group is removed from one amino acid and a hydrogen (H) atom is removed from the adjacent amino acid, resulting in the formation of a peptide bond.

What type of molecule is removed during dehydration synthesis?
water
How many water molecules would be removed during the formation of a polysaccharides containing 240 monosaccharides?
120, because for every two monosaccharides that react, one molecule of water is given off
What is the purpose of a transfer RNA?
To carry the next amino acid to be added to a growing polypeptide chain during translation process that takes place in the ribosomes.
What is decarboxylation of salicylic acid?
Decarboxylation is the process of removing a carboxyl group from a chemical compound. The removal of the COOH and is replaced with a proton.
What is the activation energy for the formation of ozone?
Ozone formation is a chemical process which can be brought about by various methods: 1. Corona discharge method : Oxygen in air is sparked with a corona discharge and gets converted into ozone. 2. UV radiation : Oxygen when treated with narrow band UV light forms ozone. UV radiation is the method how ozone layer was formed naturally.
When amino acids are joined to form a polypeptide chain a waste molecule is given off as a result of the chemical reaction What is this waste molecule?
The waste molecule that is released during the formation of a polypeptide chain is water (H2O). This is a result of a condensation reaction between the amino acids, where a hydroxyl group (-OH) from one amino acid combines with a hydrogen atom (-H) from another amino acid, resulting in the formation of water along with the peptide bond between the two amino acids.
What is used during RNA translation.?
mRNA- a transcript of DNA which serves as instuctions for polypeptide formation. amino acid- a single buildin block of protein. tRNA- a molecule that carries a specific amino acid and recognizes its complementary base sequence on an mRNA strand. ribosome- an organelle which serves as the "factory" where amino acids are addes to a growing polypeptide chain.

What molecule is produced during translation?
Translation occurs in ribosomes and produces proteins.
Product of the combination of atoms during chemical reactions?
Combinations of atoms results in formation of a molecule.
What is mean nascent ?
nascent is Descriptive of a newly formed molecule during its formation or at the moment of its completion.
What are the products produced during a peptide bond formation?
A Water molecule or a molecule of H2O is released when a peptide bond is formed between two molecules.
The messenger RNA is converted into polypeptide sequences during the process of?
The messenger RNA is converted into polypeptide sequences during the process of transcription.
Is water lost during a polypeptide bond?
Yes.
Polymerization and the breakdown of a polymer are two opposite reactions What role does a water molecule play in both of them?
A water molecule is released during polymerization, which help in the formation of a bond, and it is added during the break down of a polymer which helps in breaking the bond.
What are the products of acetyl CoA formation from a molecule of pyruvate?
You gain 1 NADH and acetyl CoA during the conversion of 1 pyruvate to acetyl CoA.
