The general term is "condensation reaction." "Dehydration reaction" is also appropriate.
The hydrate in carbohydrates refers to the presence of water molecules in the structure of these molecules. Carbohydrates are composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, typically in the ratio of 1:2:1. The presence of water molecules in carbohydrates is important for hydrolysis, which is the breakdown of carbohydrates into smaller units by adding water, as well as for polymerization, which is the formation of larger carbohydrate molecules by removing water.
Yes, a condensation reaction is an anabolic reaction. It involves the formation of larger molecules from smaller ones by the removal of a water molecule. This process is common in the synthesis of complex molecules like proteins and carbohydrates.
Carbohydrates are chains of smaller organic molecules called monosaccharides.
Carbohydrases break down carbohydrates into simple sugars such as glucose and fructose. They hydrolyze complex carbohydrates like starch, cellulose, and glycogen into smaller sugar molecules that can be easily absorbed by the body.
Protein is digested to form amino acids. Lipids are digested to fatty acids. Carbohydrates are digested to glucose and other simple sugars.
they disolve :)
Hydrolysis is a chemical reaction that breaks down large biological molecules, such as carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, into smaller components like sugars, amino acids, and fatty acids. These smaller molecules can then be absorbed by cells and used for energy, growth, and various cellular processes.
An exergonic reaction is a catabolic reaction where large molecules are split into smaller molecules in processes such as hydrolysis.
The bonding together of many similar but smaller molecules is called a synthesis reaction or a combination reaction.
Concentrated carbohydrates are a new addition to the athletes toolkit. These gels and drinks pack the available carbohydrates in a smaller easier to ingest on the fly form.
a. sugars ur welcome :) i have the same h.w. as you
Hydrolase is an enzyme that catalyzes the splitting of organic molecules into smaller molecules in the presence of water. Example; the hydrolysis of the carbohydrate starch.
