A polysaccharide is a polymer made up of what kind of monomers?

∙ 10y ago
Polysaccharides are a chains of carbohydrates (monosaccharides) linked together that are longer than 10 to 20 units.
Starch, glycogen, and cellulose are made from glucose. Other polysaccharides are made from a variety of different monosaccharides. Hemicelulose is made from glucose, xylose, mannose, galactose, rhamnose, and arabinose. Pectin is made from galacturonic acid and galacturonoglycan. Food gums can be made from rhamnose, arabinose, glucose, xylose, and galactose.

What is monosaccharide and polysaccharide?
A monosacharide is a "simple" sugar such as glucose or fructose. A polysaccharide is a polymer made by linking many monosacharides together. For example, glycogen is a polysaccharide; it is a polymer of glucose.
What is the difference between a cross linked polymer and a polymer?
Cross linked polymers are made of 2 or more monomers whereas a simple polymer is made up of a single monomer.
1 what is the relationship between a polymer and a monomer really need help?
each polymer is made up of several monomers
Is a protein polymer or monomer?
Definitely a polymer. Protein is made of many monomers of amino acids.
Polymer made up of chains of amino acids?
Polymer made up of chains of amino acids, also called a polypeptide?
Is polysacharide a polymer?
YES. All polymers are made of repeating units called monomers. In this case the repeating unit is a sugar (glucose) forming the polysaccharide such as starch.

Is poly amides a polymer?
A polymer is a large molecule made up of repeating units. These units are called monomers. In a polymer, monomers may be both identical or non identical. In polyamide, as the name suggests, the monomers are amides and it is a polymer.
Is chitin soluble?
No, chitin is a polysaccharide (a polymer made of many saccharide, or sugar, monomers). Proteins are composed of long chains of interconnected amino acids (forming peptides).
An analogy for how a polymer is made from many monomers?
The freezing of ice.
What is an organic polymer made of amino acid monomers?
proteins
What is the difference between a lattice and a polymer?
A lattice is made out of ions by charge attraction and a polymer is made of one or several monomers bonded covalently.
What attaches monomers to each other?
A polymer can be made up of thousands of monomer.This linking up of monomers is called polymerization
What is the difference between a cross linked polymer and a polymer?
Cross linked polymers are made of 2 or more monomers whereas a simple polymer is made up of a single monomer.
A molecule made of many repeating parts is known as what?
A molecule made of many repeating parts is known as a polymer.

How Both Nucleic Acids aNd Proteins And Polymers?
A polymer is a large molecule made up of repeated subunits called monomers. Nucleic acids are polymers that are made up of monomers called nucleotides. Protein is a polymer made of monomers called amino acids.
