Part A

Another name for a condensation reaction is dehydration. This process typically involves the removal of a water molecule when two monomers bond together.

Part B

The name of the process during which a bond between two monomers is broken is hydrolysis. This process usually involves the addition of water to break the bond.

Part C

  • Nucleic acid polymers are made up of nucleotide monomers.
  • Carbohydrate polymers are made up of monosaccharide monomers.
  • Protein polymers are made up of amino acid monomers.
