What is the process by which nutrient molecules are moved into the bloodstream called?
into your small intestine.
When a small river flows into a larger one what does it eventually empty into?
Tributary
What small hydrocarbon molecules form polymers?
Monomers are small hydrocarbon molecules that form polymers.
Are amini acids large or small?
They are actually called amino acids. Anyway amino acids are small molecules that are linked chemically to other amino acids to form proteins.
What is a small object usually built to scale that represents in detail another often larger object?
The smaller objects which are built to represent the larger objects are called Model
Does dehydration synthesis build or break down molecuels?
Build. Dehydration is a condensation reaction - monomers (small molecules) react together to form larger molecules (polymers) - and water is eliminated when they link together.
Is fever an anabolic process?
Anabolism refers to a type of metabolic process that consumes energy in order to build up small molecules into larger molecules. Fever is an example of an anabolic process.
What is large molecules to small molecules called?
cell wall
Large molecules that are formed by joining smaller organic molecules together?
A polymer. The smaller molecules are called monomers. For example, many glucose molecules (the monomers) linked together make a starch molecule (the polymer). Similarly, many amino acid molecules (the monomers) linked together form a protein molecule (the polymer). For more in formation about polymers, starting at the very beginning, see: http://pslc.ws/macrog/kidsmac/wiap.htm
What are the special proteins that can break large molecules into small molecules?
These substances are called enzymes.
Reactions in which small molecules are put together to build larger ones?
It is a part of combination reactions. Two or more elements or compound react to form a largermolecule.Example:-NH3 + H2O -------> NH4OHCaO + CO2 ---------> CaCO3
What process is used to take two small organic molecules and build a large one?
Biosynthesis
Does the small intestine break up molecules?
Enzymes in the small intestine can break larger molecules such as proteins into smaller molecules such as amino acids. These enzymes are either produced in the pancreas and taken to the first part of the small intestine by the pancreatic duct or some enzymes may be produced by the lining of the small intestine called the "brush border" in the first part of the small intestine. Large molecules such as proteins or starch need to be broken down to smaller molecules before they can be absorbed into the bloodstream and beusableto the person's body cells.
Nutrient molecules pass from the small intestine into the bloodstream through tiny structures called what?
Nutrient molecules pass from the small intestine into the through tiny structures called villi.
What is a small earthquake before a larger one called?
It is called a tremor.
What are micromolecules?
Micromolecules are larger molecules joined together by smaller organic molecules .
What are the small molecules that make up proteins called?
Amino acids.
