Module 1 & 2 Hmwk Saved Help Save & Exit IVIUIIIREIS alu polyuneis Complete the following paragraph to describe how the organic nutrients of our bodies are made. Answer choices may be used than once. hydrolysis Most organic molecules are composed of smaller subunits called monomers, polymers These monomers join together to form long polymers. monomers When enzymes link monomers together, the reaction is called a reaction and water is made as a byproduct. dehydration synthesis When enzymes break poly the reaction is called a reaction and water is broken and used in the reaction. peptide reaction

Answer 1

1- Monomers like amino acids or nucleotides polymerizes by dehydration or condensation reaction to form polymers like proteins or nucleic acid. First fill in the blanks (monomer) is correct.

2- second fill in the blanks (monomer and polymers) also correct.

3- When the enzyme links monomer together the reaction is called a dehydration synthesis reaction (mentioned in the first point) and water is made as a byproduct.

4- When enzymes break polymers, the reaction is called hydrolysis reaction, and water is broken and used in the reaction.
