The monomers that result from the hydrolysis of proteins are amino acids. Proteins are made up of long chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds. Through hydrolysis, these peptide bonds are broken, resulting in the release of individual amino acids.

If a cell needed to turn a polysaccharide into monosaccharides it would need to perform what?

It needs to hydrolyze (perform hydrolysis on) the polymer into monomers with an enzyme.


Which monomers are found in protein?

The correct question to ask would have been "Monomers that are found in proteins are called _______?" but to answer your question, Monomers that are in proteins are called amino acids.


What reaction turn polymers into monomers?

The simple one word answer is polymerization. There are a number of methods of achieving this. One method is dehydration synthesis in which for example a poly alcohol is reacted with a polyacid to form a polyester and water. Another would be addition polymerization which can be achieved by use of an intiator or even UV light.Dehydration synthesis turns monomers into polymers.Monomers are broken up through hydrolysis reactions. This is when the monomers break and are "capped" with a hydrogen or a hydroxyl (if not, then such molecules can do damage to the body). This process is aided by enzymes (proteins) which catalyze the reactions.


Why are proteins and carbohydrates polymers-?

It depends on the context. Colloquially, proteins and carbohydrates mean the polymers (polypeptides and polysaccharides) because there is no need to address the monomers - we eat the polymers. However, while studying Biochemistry, it is not sufficient to say just protein or carbohydrate. You would need to specify if your talking about a monomer or a polymer and what type.


Is cellulose and amino acids proper paring for a polymer and its monomer?

No, cellulose is not a monomer for amino acids to form a polymer. Cellulose is a polysaccharide composed of glucose monomers, while amino acids are the monomers of proteins, which are formed by peptide bonds. The proper pairing for cellulose would be glucose monomers, while amino acids would pair to form proteins.


What products would result from the complete hydrolysis of Gly-Ala-Ser?

The complete hydrolysis of Gly-Ala-Ser would result in the formation of three individual amino acids: glycine (Gly), alanine (Ala), and serine (Ser).


What hydrolysis test would a positive test result be expected for the etiologic agent of acne Propionibacterium acnes?

Triglycerides hydrolysis test because this bacterium feeds on fatty acids.


How many monomers are there in proteins?

It varies per protein, some have many some have few. If all were the same, there would be a limited amount of proteins.


If starch is hydrolyzed completely the end products of the reaction would be?

The end products of the complete hydrolysis of starch are glucose molecules. Starch is a polysaccharide made up of many glucose units, so when it is fully broken down through hydrolysis, it yields individual glucose molecules.


What would biocheemists call the result of chaning many of these molecules together?

Biochemists would call the result of chaining many molecules together a polymer. Polymers are large molecules made up of repeating units called monomers. The process of linking monomers together is known as polymerization.


Which monomer would you use to build a protein?

Amino acids are the monomers used to build proteins. Proteins are made up of long chains of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds.


What is changed when making up a complex polymer that would result in a compound with different chemical properties?

The number of monomers in the polymer is variable.
