what is a monomer
a molecule that can be bonded to form a polymer one singulsr molecule
what is a polymer
: a chemical compound or mixture of compounds formed by polymerization and consisting essentially of repeating structural units two monmers
dehydratian synthesis
: a chemical compound or mixture of compounds formed by polymerization and consisting essentially of repeating structural units
what is hydralosis
the chemical breakdown of a compound due to reaction with water
isomers
molecules of the same formula but having a different arrangement of their atoms ex; ethyl benzene

nucleic acid
nucleic acid is made up of
sugar, nitrogen pholspates
monomer of a protein
amino acid
dimer of a protein
dipeptide
polymer of protein
polypeptide
non competitve inhibator
binds elsewhere on the enzyme and the reaction rate slows
competitve inhibator
competes with enzymes for active site, reaction rate slows
