Is cellulose a heteroglycan?
Cellulose has an unique monomer - glucose.
Which monomer units combine to form proteins?
Amino acids are the monomer units that combine to form proteins through peptide bond formation. Each amino acid has a unique side chain that determines its properties and function in the protein structure.
Protein molecules are composed of long chains of .?
amino acids
Is a lipid a monomer or polymer?
A lipid is a type of molecule that is not considered a monomer or polymer. Lipids are a diverse group of molecules that include fats, oils, and waxes, and they do not form long chains like polymers or repeat units like monomers.
What is the monomer of lipids?
The monomer of lipids is fatty acids.
What is Something that is made up of repeating monomer units?
A polymer is a substance composed of repeating monomer units, where the monomers are linked together through chemical bonds to form a larger molecule. Examples of polymers include plastics, proteins, and DNA.
What is a monomer of starch?
It's a hexose sugar, also known as Glucose.
How many repeating units are in a monomer?
there are not repeating units in a monomer.
Are polymers molecules?
A polymer is a large molecule which is composed of repeating structural units called monomer connected to each other by covalent chemical bonds.
Is sucrose a monomer?
No, sucrose is not a monomer. It is a disaccharide composed of two monosaccharides, glucose, and fructose.
How are monomer units assembled into peptides?
.
What kind of protein is insulin?
Insulin is a peptide hormone composed of 51 amino acids and has a molecular weight of 5808 Da. It is divided in two chain of 21 and 30 amino acid bonded with sulphide bond and have quarternary structure Insulin is produced and stored in the body as a hexamer (a unit of six insulin molecules), while the active form is the monomer. The hexamer is an inactive form with long-term stability which serves as a way to keep the highly reactive insulin protected, yet readily available. The hexamer-monomer conversion is one of the central aspects of insulin formulations for injection. The hexamer is far more stable than the monomer, which is desirable for practical reasons, however the monomer is a much faster reacting drug because diffusion rate is inversely related to particle size. A fast reacting drug means that insulin injections do not have to proceed mealtimes by hours, which in turn gives diabetics more flexibility in their daily schedule.
A monomer plus a monomer plus a monomer plus a monomer is?
A polymer. Polymers are formed from the repetition of monomer units through chemical bonding to create long chains or networks.
What are the monomer units of a protein called?
cereal
Is pectin a monomer or a polymer?
Pectin is composed of polymers.
What compounds are the building of DNA macromolecule?
Nucleotides are the monomer units that make up a DNA molecule. DNA nucleotides are composed of a deoxyribose sugar, a nitrogenous base, and a phosphate group.
Insulin syringes are calibrated in?
Insulin is measured in "units".
