Why are proteins and carbohydrates polymers-?
It depends on the context. Colloquially, proteins and carbohydrates mean the polymers (polypeptides and polysaccharides) because there is no need to address the monomers - we eat the polymers. However, while studying Biochemistry, it is not sufficient to say just protein or carbohydrate. You would need to specify if your talking about a monomer or a polymer and what type.
Polymers of carbohydrates fats and proteins are all synthesized from monomers by which process?
Polymers of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins are all synthesized from monomers through the process of dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction. In this process, monomers are joined together by removing a water molecule, which forms a covalent bond between the monomers, resulting in the formation of a polymer.
What are monomers of carbohydrate?
Monosaccharides are monomers of carbohydrates. Some monosaccharides are glucose and fructose. When two monomers combine through a glycosidic bond, they form what is called a disaccharide.
Complex carbohydrates what type of chemical bond connects two monomers together?
The carbohydrates units are linked together through an oxygen bridge between two cyclic structues commonly known as Glycosidic linkage (of course it is a covalent bond).
Carbohydrates are made of which monomers?
Carbohydrates are made up of monomers called monosaccharides, such as glucose, fructose, and galactose. These monosaccharides can join together to form larger carbohydrates such as disaccharides (e.g., sucrose, lactose) or polysaccharides (e.g., starch, cellulose).
The monomers of carbohydrates are?
The general name for monomers in carbohydrates is monosaccharid.
What are the monomers for carbohydrates and lipids?
monomers for carbohydrates is monosaccharides simple sugar. monomer for lipids is 3 fatty acids
What are monomers for carbohydrates?
simple sugars
What is the basic building blocks for carbohydrates and proteins?
monosaccharides are the monomers for carbohydrates and amino acids are the monomers of proteins. I take gifted bio
What are the monomers of carbohydrates?
The monomers of carbohydrates are simple sugars known as monosaccharides, such as glucose, fructose, and galactose. These monosaccharides can link together to form larger carbohydrates like disaccharides (e.g. sucrose), oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides (e.g. starch, cellulose).
What are the monomers of complex carbohydrates?
The monomers of complex carbohydrates are simple sugars, or monosaccharides, such as glucose, fructose, and galactose. These monosaccharides join together through glycosidic bonds to form polysaccharides like starch, cellulose, and glycogen.
The building blocks or monomers that make up carbohydrates are?
Monosaccharides are monomers that make up carbohydrates. These are held together by covalent bonds or glycosidic linkages and store and transport energy.
Do proteins lipids carbs and nucleic acids have monomers?
Yes, proteins have monomers called amino acids, lipids do not have monomers, carbohydrates have monomers called monosaccharides, and nucleic acids have monomers called nucleotides.
What do polysaccharides such as starch break down into what are the monomers of carbohydrates?
glucose
What is the momomer for protein?
Sugars, such as glucose and fructose, are the monomers of carbohydrates.
What do you call the single units that make up carbohydrates and what do you call the long chains of carbohydrates?
Monomers of carbohydrates are monosaccharides. Chains are polysaccharides.
Subunits in carbohydrates?
The subunits (or monomers) of carbohydrates are monosaccharides and disaccharides. The polymers (the products of these linked subunits) are starches and polysaccharides.
