What are large molecules made up of smaller molecules?
The answer is polymer. Could also be referring to Macromolecule
How are polymers built and broken down?
The breaking down of some complex molecules, such as polymers, occurs through a process known as hydrolysis.Hydrolysis takes place in the presence of water containing an acid or a base as catalyst. The water causes polymers to breakdown to monomers. Hydrolysis reactions break bonds and release energy.
Proteins and polymers of molecules called?
proteins and polymers of molecules are callled ?
What small hydrocarbon molecules form polymers?
Monomers are small hydrocarbon molecules that form polymers.
What are molecules that are long chains of repeating molecules?
polymers
Which of the major types of biological molecules does NOT consist of monomers and polymers?
The major type of biological molecules that does not consist of monomers and polymers are Lipids. Although triglycerides are created by the combination of similar molecules, others, steroids, are not.
Which organic molecules are NOT built from monomers?
Organic molecules that are not built from repeating monomers typically include simple molecules like water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2), as well as complex molecules such as cholesterol and certain hormones. These molecules do not follow a polymerization process like monomers linking to form polymers.
What are example of Some polymers?
Molecules
Are all polymers made of chains smaller molecules?
Yes. That is why they are called polymers. The prefix "poly-" means many. A polymer is made from many monomers.
What they are called when large molecules are formed by monomers?
Large molecules formed by monomers are called polymers. Polymers are made up of repeating units of smaller molecules (monomers) linked together in a chain. Examples of polymers include proteins, DNA, and plastics.
Which of the four major classes of large organic molecules include polymers?
The class of large organic molecules that include polymers is proteins, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates. Lipids are the fourth major class of large organic molecules, but they are not polymers.
What do monomers form?
Monomers are small molecules that can bind together to form larger molecules called polymers. Polymers are made up of repeating units of monomers linked together through chemical bonds. The process of monomers forming polymers is known as polymerization.
