What else can I help you with?
What type of building blocks would you use to construct a protein?
Amino acids
What would biochemists call the result of chaining many of the molecules together?
This is called polymerization. If the "molecules" being chained together are amino acids, then Des Dichado is correct, and it is a polypeptide. If the molecules are sugars (monosaccharides), then it is a carbohydrate. If the molecules are fatty acids, then it is a lipid.
What two amino acids form when they join?
Two amino acids that join form a dipeptide.
What would a hydrocarbon chain that can interact with water be called?
and what would happen?
Which of the amino acids would whne incorporated into polypeptide chain make the charge of the polypeptide more positive?
Amino acids with positively charged side chains, such as lysine, arginine, and histidine, would make the overall charge of a polypeptide more positive when incorporated into the polypeptide chain. These amino acids have side chains that can interact with negatively charged groups, leading to a net positive charge in the polypeptide.

Amino acids
What are numerous amino acids bonded together called?
Numerous amino acids bonded together are called polypeptides. These polymers are formed when multiple amino acid monomers link together through peptide bonds, forming a long chain. Polypeptides can fold into specific shapes to create proteins with diverse functions.
Formation of peptide bonds between amino acids to build polypeptide would be called?
The process of forming peptide bonds between amino acids to build a polypeptide chain is called protein synthesis or translation. It occurs during the ribosome-mediated assembly of amino acids in the order specified by messenger RNA (mRNA) during protein synthesis.

What would a hawk be called in a food chain?
Primary Consumers
How do you lower very long chain fatty acids?
Long chain fatty acids are mostly oils, animal fat, butter, fish oil and most other fats found in foods. To reduce the intake cut down on all of these foods. Having said this, I would like to mention that the very long fatty acid chains are some of the healthiest oils -- ALA, EPA and DHA. These are found in canola oil, olive oil, and fish oil. These oils benefit the brain, eyes and heart. The oils to reduce would be animal fat, saturated fat, trans fat, butter, etc.
Can 2 amino acids form a protein?
No. A protein is defined by its function, as much as its structure. A chain of two amino acids would have no protein-like functions. The smallest known protein is a chain of 20 amino acids, but most have many more, and sometimes consist of multiple chains of amino acids.
What is the dense portion of some cell containing nucleic acids acids called?
nucleus
Which cell organelle puts amino acids together in a specific order to make proteins?
This would be the function of the ribosomes. The ribosome assembles amino acids into proteins. Ribosomes are small structures made of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and protein. (RNA is a molecule similar in structure to DNA.) When cells need to make proteins, they copy the instructions for the protein from the DNA of the cell by making a molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA). The mRNA travels to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm of the cell. Another type of RNA molecule, called transfer RNA (tRNA) brings amino acids to the ribosome. The tRNA molecules decode the mRNA by binding to it, so that the tRNAs bring in the correct amino acids according to the instructions in the mRNA. The ribosome helps keep this whole process organized and helps form the bonds between the amino acids to create a chain of amino acids. A chain of amino acids is called a polypeptide chain. Polypeptide chains fold up to form proteins.
