What else can I help you with?
What is it called when 2 subunits are joined enzymes remove an H from one monomer and an OH from another releasing a water molecule?
dehydration synthesis
What is the process of joining monomers together by removing a hydrogen from one monomer and a hydroxyl group from another?
Condensation.
What process joins the monomer in a disaccharide and polysaccharide together?
The process that joins monomers in a disaccharide or polysaccharide is called dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction. In this process, a water molecule is removed as the monomers are joined together to form a larger sugar molecule.
What molecule is released during construction of a polymer?
During the construction of a polymer, a molecule of water is typically released in a process called dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction. This reaction links monomer units together to form a polymer chain by removing a water molecule for each bond formed between the monomers.
Why are polymerization reations sometimes called dehydration synthesis reaction?
Not all polymerisations can be called dehydration synthesis reactions. However it is a very common way in which polymers can be formed. One way monomer units can join together is by eliminating a small molecule such as water between them, hence dehydration. (Condensation is more usual). Synthesis means building up, so the polymer is built up by losing water.

In plants a storage product that results from dehydration synthesis of many glucose molecules?
The storage product in plants resulting from dehydration synthesis of many glucose molecules is starch. Starch is a polysaccharide composed of multiple glucose units bonded together, and it serves as a long-term energy storage molecule in plants.
What happen to monomers when they undergo dehydration synthesis.?
Monomers become chemically bonded to one another when they undergo dehydration synthesis and form dimers, or polymers. During dehydration synthesis, one monomer loses an H atom, and the other loses an OH group, which will form a molecule of water, which is why it is called a dehydration synthesis. A larger molecule will be synthesized with a loss of a water molecule. One example is the dehydration synthesis that occurs between the monosaccharides glucose and fructose, which yields the disaccharide sucrose (table sugar), and a molecule of water. Refer to the related link for an illustration.
Combining a molecule of glucose with a molecule of fructose to make a larger molecule of sucrose is an example of?
I hope this is what you are looking for! When you combine two monomers (an individual building block, e.g. a molecule of fructose) to make a polymer (the linked chain made of the monomers) you go through a process called dehydration reaction, or dehydration synthesis. In dehydration synthesis one molecule of water is taken out from the monomers which combines them together. An unlinked monomer (e.g. the molecule of fructose and glucose) will have a hydroxyl group at one end (-OH) and a hydrogen atom at the other end (-H). When you take out the water (H20) you form a covalent bond between the end of one monomer, and the beginning of the next - linking the two monomers
What is the process of joining monomers together by removing a hydrogen from one monomer and a hydroxyl group from another?
Condensation.
Why is condensation reactions referred to as dehydration synthesis?
if a condensation reaction involves loss of water, ONLY then it is known to a dehydration. however, there are reactions which may involve loss of carbon dioxide or ammonia, and are then not considered to be dehydration
What process joins the monomer in a disaccharide and polysaccharide together?
The process that joins monomers in a disaccharide or polysaccharide is called dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction. In this process, a water molecule is removed as the monomers are joined together to form a larger sugar molecule.
Which reaction dehydration synthesis or hydrolysis converts a polymer to its monomer?
Hydrolysis converts polymers to monomers by adding H2O between each monomer. In dehydration synthesis, the opposite occurs. As the name implies, water is removed in order to bond the monomers.

Which process in body cells makes water?
dehydration synthesis (the process of making a polymer from monomer units , or making a greater polymer from smaller polymers)
