Macromolecules - 3

Question 1

chemical reaction

Answer 1

When compounds are formed by the combination of 2 elements or when they are broken apart (seperated)

Question 2

reactants

Answer 2

The two separate elements that are going to be combined in a chemical reaction

Question 3

products

Answer 3

A combination of elements formed by a chemical reaction

Question 4

4 types of macromolecules:

Answer 4

Carbs, Proteins, Lipids, and Nucleic Acids

Question 5

elements that make up macromolecules

Answer 5

hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, phosphorus, and sulfur

Question 6

monomers vs. polymers

Answer 6

Monomers make up polymers. Polymers are chains of bonded up monomers.

Question 7

Dehydration Synthesis vs. Hydrolysis reactions

Answer 7

Dehydration Synthesis is when monomers are bonded together with the loss of water, whereas in Hydrolysis, monomers are broken apart when water was added.
