What products would result from the complete hydrolysis of Gly-Ala-Ser?
alanine,glycine,serine
Consider a polysaccharide consisting of 576 glucose molecules The total hydrolysis of the polysaccharide would result in the production of?
828 glucose molecules and no water becuase hydrolysis removes water
Are fats polymers or monomers?
Polymers, they are lipids which are long carbon chains
What is macromolecule formed when monomers join together?
AnswerWell, monomers of what? If it is monomers of a sugar than it would be a monosaccharide, and when joined a disaccharide. If it is just a monomer in the general term, it when joined it would be a dimer. You see mono in the beginning of the word means 1, while di means 2. If even more monomers were joined it would be tri and tetra and on and on. However anything more than two can be called a polymer, poly meaning many. Other monomers of macromolecules include nucleotides, and amino acids.
Disaccharides are converted into monosaccharides by the process of?
Hydrolysis is the process that breaks down polysaccharides into simpler sugars.
Which monomers are found in protein?
The correct question to ask would have been "Monomers that are found in proteins are called _______?" but to answer your question, Monomers that are in proteins are called amino acids.
If a cell needed to turn a polysaccharide into monosaccharides it would need to perform what?
It needs to hydrolyze (perform hydrolysis on) the polymer into monomers with an enzyme.
What reaction turn polymers into monomers?
The simple one word answer is polymerization. There are a number of methods of achieving this. One method is dehydration synthesis in which for example a poly alcohol is reacted with a polyacid to form a polyester and water. Another would be addition polymerization which can be achieved by use of an intiator or even UV light.Dehydration synthesis turns monomers into polymers.Monomers are broken up through hydrolysis reactions. This is when the monomers break and are "capped" with a hydrogen or a hydroxyl (if not, then such molecules can do damage to the body). This process is aided by enzymes (proteins) which catalyze the reactions.
What products would result from the complete hydrolysis of Gly-Ala-Ser?
alanine,glycine,serine
What hydrolysis test would a positive test result be expected for the etiologic agent of acne Propionibacterium acnes?
Triglycerides hydrolysis test because this bacterium feeds on fatty acids.
How many monomers are there in proteins?
It varies per protein, some have many some have few. If all were the same, there would be a limited amount of proteins.
Why are proteins and carbohydrates polymers-?
It depends on the context. Colloquially, proteins and carbohydrates mean the polymers (polypeptides and polysaccharides) because there is no need to address the monomers - we eat the polymers. However, while studying Biochemistry, it is not sufficient to say just protein or carbohydrate. You would need to specify if your talking about a monomer or a polymer and what type.
Consider a polysaccharide consisting of 576 glucose molecules The total hydrolysis of the polysaccharide would result in the production of?
828 glucose molecules and no water becuase hydrolysis removes water
What monomers and polymers are examples of carbohydrates?
A monomer carbohydrate, which is a monosaccharide, would be something like glucose, one molecule of a simple sugar. A disaccharide would be sucrose. A polymer carbohydrate, or polysaccharide, would be any starch, which is chains of monosaccharides.
For which of the five hydrolysis tests would a positive test result be expected for the etiologic agent of gastric ulcer's helicobacter pylori?
Urea
What is changed when making up a complex polymer that would result in a compound with different chemical properties?
The number of monomers in the polymer is variable.
Nutrients absorbed into the lymph or bloodstream are in what form?
It would be monomers.
