Polysaccharides are formed by the condensation of individual monosaccharides - in the process glycosidic bonds are formed and one molecule of water is released per bond. This is a dehydration synthesis.
Formation of proteins by the joining of individual amino acids via peptide bonds is also a dehydration synthesis with one molecule of water being produced per peptide bond.

What is the general term used to describe the process by which polymers are produced?
The Polymerization process .
Single unit makes up your macromolecules?
They are called monomers. They build up polymers
What does your body meed to break down polymers into monomers?
When polymers are broken down into monomers, the body uses those monomers for a number of activities. Some of them include protein construction and respiration. The process of polymers breaking down to monomers is called hydrolysis.WRITEN BY: oneofthem:
What substance makes starch?
Starch is made up of amylose and amylopectin. Both of these are polymers of glucose molecules.
What is the purpose of polymers?
Polymers are used all around, plastics and rubber are polymers.
Which process in body cells makes water?
dehydration synthesis (the process of making a polymer from monomer units , or making a greater polymer from smaller polymers)
What effect do plasticisers have on polymers?
The effect it has on polymers is that it makes them condensate.
How are polymers monomers and polymerization related?
Monomers chemically bond to make polymers in the process of polymerization.
How are monomers polymers polymerization related?
Monomers chemically bond to make polymers in the process of polymerization.
How do plants make and store food?
They trap the energy in Sunlight using the green pigments in their leaves in the process called "photosynthesis". This process makes sugar and they store the food a polymers of sugar.
What trend is NOT seen in polymers as they get larger?
As polymers get larger the trend that is not seen is that they are are easy to process. This is not the trend because as polymers get larger, their solutions begin to develop a high viscosity, they become less soluble, and they become difficult to process.
What type of chemical reaction occurs when polymers are broken apart by water?
Hydrolysis. Polymers are broken down into monomers in a process known as hydrolysis
What makes polymers stronger?
bonds i think
Are polymers broken down by the process of hydrogenation?
no.
What makes large molecules by removing water?
polymers
What are the Polymers that makes up proteins?
ano acids
What chemical process is used to build organic polymers?
This chemical process is called polymerization.
