Single amino acids are monomers, and monomers of amino acids join by peptide bonds to form polypeptide polymers.
A polymer consisting of two monomers is a dimer.

When two amino acids combine does the amino group of one molecule combine with the acid group of the second molecule?
When amino acids combine, they create proteins.
How a second amino acid would bond to cysteine in forming the primary strusture of a protein?
A condensation reaction between the acid group of one amino acid and the amino group of another forms a covalent bond between two amino acids. A water molecule is also produced. A new bond formed is called a peptide bond.
What are the two functional parts of a changed tRNA?
An amino acid and an anticodon. this is the right answer
What are the names of the two chemical groups that all amino acids have in common?
Amino = Amine Acid = Carboxylic Acid These two groups are what give amino acid's there name. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amino_acid
Which ion is part of every amino acid?
There are two ions present in every amino acid. There is a positively charged amino group and a negatively charged carboxyl group.
1 molecule of alpha-amino acid reacts with how many molecules of ninhydrin?
Two.
What type of molecule is removed when two amino acids bond?
a.amino acid?b.co2?c.glycerol?d.h20?
The bonding of two amino acids to form a larger molecule requires?
the release of a water moleculeThis bonding of two amino acid molecules requires the release of a water molecule.
What is the product of the dehydration synthesis of 2 amino acid molecules is a molecule that consists of two amino acids bonded together?
a protein
What is the term used to describe the molecule formed by condensing only two amino acid?
Dipeptide
Explain amino fatty acid in the body?
Amino acids are the building blocks of a protein. Fatty acid is involved in formation of fats. Fatty acid and glycerol are two things that makes up a fat molecule.
When two amino acids combine does the amino group of one molecule combine with the acid group of the second molecule?
When amino acids combine, they create proteins.
Is amino acid a basic unit of a sugar molecule?
i don't think they are, amino acids contain something that sugars don't, and glucose (a simple sugar) is not a protein.
What does each amino acid contain?
An amino acid molecule is formed by a primary amino group and a carboxylic acid group substituent on the same carbon atom (the alpha carbon), leaving two coordination links available, one is occupied by a hydrogen and the other by a side chain that gives to the molecule their identity. There is an exception, the amino acid proline that has a secondary amino group.
Is phosphoric acid an amino acid?
Nope. To my knowledge there are only two acidic amino acids: Aspartic acid and glutamic acid.
How does a peptide bond form between two adjacent amino acids?
Condensation reactions result in a peptide bond being formed between two amino acids. The OH- from the carboxylic group of one amino acid, and a hydrogen from the second amino acid's amine group form a water molecule. A peptide bond is created between a carbon of the first amino acid and the nitrogen of the second amino.
How a second amino acid would bond to cysteine in forming the primary strusture of a protein?
A condensation reaction between the acid group of one amino acid and the amino group of another forms a covalent bond between two amino acids. A water molecule is also produced. A new bond formed is called a peptide bond.
