What name is given to the process seen in this animation? (monomers: OH-OH and
OH-OH get connected by polymerase which squeezes the monomers together and
creates the chain OH-O-O-OH because it squeezes the middle OH and OH
together to create H2O and leaves one O leftover, which allows the chain to
continue)
Ans: dehydration synthesis: the linking of the monomers involves the removal of
water
Glycogen is ___
Ans: A polysaccharide found in animals: animals store energy in the form of
glycogen
Glucose + Glucose ---> __by__
Ans: maltose + water... dehydration synthesis: maltose is the disaccharide formed
when two glucose molecules are linked by dehydration synthesis
