Why cam carbon and hydrogen form so many hydrocarbons?
Carbon can form chains of variable length and configuration, each different, so there are many different hydrocarbons.
What about the carbon atom makes it an ideal atom to form the backbone or skelton for most biological compounds?
Carbon atoms can bond together to form single, double, and triple bonds, long chains, branched chains, and rings, which enables carbon to form so many different compounds with hydrogen, oxygen, and other atoms like phosphorus, nitrogen, and sulfur.
What is the composition of Teflon?
Teflon is a compound that we call a polymer. These polymers are small repeating units that all look the same, but thousands combine together to form long chains. The scientific name for teflon is Polytetrafluoroethylene. This simply means in plain English many units of 2 carbons and 4 fluorines. One unit would look something like: F F | | CC | | F F and this unit is repeated many thousands of times to form the long chains of the polymer. The single unit is called a monomer.
Do Carbon compounds form rings or long chains?
Yes, both. Ring structures are called cyclic compounds and can be aromatic or aliphatic, there are a wide variety of cyclic compounds that can be made/found, such as furan and pyridine (both heterocycles). Functional groups such as OH can also be attached to a cyclic ring. "Chains" are aliphatic and are termed acyclic
Monosaccharides may bond together to form molecules called?
Two monosaccharides may bond to form a disaccharide. Many monosaccharides may bond together to form polysaccharides.
What is the name of many food chains linked together?
Many food chains linked together makes up a food web.
What proteins are joined into long chains called polypeptides?
Many amino acids are joined together by peptide bonds to form polypeptides.
Why is carbon able to form macromolecules?
It can form four bonds. It is small and can form long chains
What are many food chains linked together?
a recipe
How many polypeptide chains form the globin portion of the molecule?
4 polypeptide chains, each bound to a heme group to form hemoglobing
What do Many food chains linked together make?
A food web.
What is the term for many food chains linked together?
food web
What is unique about carbons?
Carbon is unique because it can form four bonds, allowing it to act as the backbone for many molecules, and also because of the many structures it can form (rings, linear chains, double-bonded chains, triple-bonded chains, flat sheets, and buckminsterfullerene.
Define community in science?
Many different populations, group of the same living organisms, living together.
How many different organisms are in a species?
A species is defined as all of the organisms who can breed together to form viable, fertile offspring. Therefore, it is a natural unit and subject to variation between different examples.
What is the singular of spieces?
The word species is the singular and the plural form; a species of fish, many species of fish.
What links together many food chains?
If I'm understanding your question correctly, it's called an ecosystem.
