Q

dehydration synthesis

A
  • Joins momomers by taking out H20
  • one monomer donates 0H-
  • Other monomer donates H+
  • Together these form H2O

Q

Hydrolysis

A
  • H2) to break down polymers
    -Reverse of DH
    -Cleave of one monomer at a time
    -water is split into H+ and OH-
  • H+ and OH- attach to enzyems

relation between monomers, polymers, dehydration synthesis, and hydrolysis

A

Monomers are formed together during DS, this forms H2O, them polymers are broken back into monomers during hysrolyso.
