Solutions
A chain made of several of these molecules joined covalently by dehydration synthesis forms a
polypeptide protein
A group of macromolecules that have many different functions are proteins
monosaccharide glucose, fructose, and galactose
disaccharide sucrose, lactose, and maltose
polysaccharide starch, glycogen, and cellulose
primary structure of protein sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain, determines
all subsequent structure
, secondary structure of protein helical shape of a peptide chain due to hydrogen bonding,
β sheets
tertiary structure of protein Interaction of R groups of different amino acids, contortions
in shape, disulfide bridges
quaternary structure joining of several polypeptide chains
What type of chemical reaction results in the breakdown of organic of organic polymers into
their respective subunits? Hydrolysis Percolation oxidation dehydration synthesis
Hydrocarbons are non soluble in water because The C-H bond is nonpolar
What parts of the amino acid form the peptide bond ( what functional groups participate in the
bond formation)? The peptide bond forms between the carboxyl group of one amino acid
and that amino group of another amino acid. This happens through dehydration synthesis.
