What type of reaction occurs between building block subunits to create proteins and lipids and complex carbohydrates and nucleic acids?
In each case, two compounds combine with the elimination of a molecule of water. A reaction in which a small molecule is lost is called a condensation reaction. More specifically, since it is water that is lost, these are dehydrationreactions.
Amino acids combine in the synthesis of the polypeptide chains that make up proteins.
Glycerol (a trihydric alcohol) and three fatty acids combine to form a lipid.
Monosaccharides combine to form polysaccharides (complex carbohydrates).
Nucleotides combine to form a strand of a nucleic acid.
What else can I help you with?
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.
What are the names of the subunits that make up protein?
Amino acids are the subunits that make up proteins.
What subunits are present in carbohydrates?
Carbohydrates, Cx(H2O)y, are made up of two subunits, carbon (Cx) and water (H2O)y, where x and y are the number of molecules in each of the subunits.
The subunits of proteins?
No. Amino acids are sub-units of proteins
What is a large molecule that is make up of identical or similar subunits linked together?
A polymer is a large molecule made up of identical or similar subunits linked together. Examples of polymers include proteins, DNA, and carbohydrates.
Ribosomes are made up of two subunits?
There are two components.They are rRNA and proteins
How many different kinds of protein subunits are there?
1000's of proteins subunits can be made.
What are the subunits of a protine?
The subunits of proteins are called amino acids. We use twenty of these amino acids to make all the proteins the body uses.
Large organic molecules that are synthesized from multiple subunits are?
Molecules that are synthesised from multiple subunits are known as polymers. The subunits are known as monomers. An example of a polymer is a protein, which is made up of amino acid subunits (monomers). A large organic molecule, usually created by polymerisation of monomers is known as a macromolecule. This includes nucleic acids, proteins and carbohydrates.
What are the subunits of proteins called?
Amino Acids

Amino acids.
What are the subunits of proteins in DNA?
