What is a polynucleotide?
Polynucleotide is a molecule that is usually in DNA and RNA. It is biopolymer composed and usually has thirteen or more nucleotides.
The process of forming a larger molecule from its monomer is called what?
Many terms can describe this process. The reactions involved are called dehydration synthesis (aka condensation) reactions or more specifically polymerization reactions. However the process can be called an anabolic process.
How many polynucleotide chains are in each DNA molecule?
hundreds and thousands =) : im looking at my book right now because i also needed this answer.
How many polynucleotide strands do RNA have?
RNA typically consists of a single polynucleotide strand.
Subunits that make up polymers?
It's the monomer, the unit that repeats itself along the polymer.
What are called monomers?
Monomer is a single molecule.
What is one molecule called that makes up the links in a polymer chain?
Monomer is the term used to describe the individual molecule that links together to form a polymer chain.
In DNA molecule how many polynucleotide strands are present?
In a DNA molecule, two polynucleotide strands are present. These strands are arranged in a double helix structure, with each strand consisting of a sequence of nucleotides that are complementary to each other.
Why is DNA called polynucleotide?
DNA is called a polynucleotide because it is composed of multiple nucleotides linked together in a chain. Each nucleotide consists of a sugar molecule, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base, and when these nucleotides join together through phosphodiester bonds, they form a long chain called a polynucleotide.
Is glucose a monomer?
Yes. You are right. Glucose is a monomer. Because it is a single molecule.
What is the job of nucleotide?
A nucleotide is the monomer of a nucleic acid. When many nucleotides go through polymerization, then they create a polymer called a polynucleotide. Which are the building blocks for DNA and RNA.
What is the monomer for a lipid?
The monomer for a lipid would be 3 fatty acids and a glycerol molecule.
What does the term monomer refer to?
A monomer is a small molecule that can chemically bond with other monomers to form a polymer. In polymer chemistry, monomers are the building blocks that contribute to the structure and properties of the resulting polymer.
What is the monomer unit of cellulose?
It depends on the type of plastic. Different plastics have different monomer units. PVC- Poly Vinyl Chloride has Vinyl Chloride CH2=CHCl as the monomer unit. Polyethylene has ethylene (ethene) CH2=CH2 as the monomer unit. There are many others.
What is a molecule that may bind chemically to other molecules to form a polymer?
That would be a monomer.
What is the definition of the word monomer?
The definition of the word monomer is molecule that just might bind chemically to other molecules to create something called a polymer. This term is usually used in the field of biology.
What is a single segment of a long chain molecule?
monomer
