The mutation<span> caused by the addition of a nucleotide to an already existing gene sequence is duplication.</span>
Different: in covalent bonds, atoms share electrons, whereas in ionic bonds atoms transfer electrons.
Alike: Both ionic and covalent bonding lead to the creation of stable molecules.
Lipids have no polymers.
A lipid is formed when a glyceral combines with one or more fatty acids.
When a molecule is made up of one sugar unit, its called a monomer.
Eg. Glucose, galactose, fructose
When a molecule is made of more than one sugar units, its called a polymer.
Eg. Cellulose, glycogen
Polymers are usually macro molecules.
Enzymes are the things in our bodies that facilitates reactions. They break down bonds in carbohydrates, lipids and proteins. When the food is being broken down, it is easier for the body to use. When the body is conducting cellular respiration, it uses monosaccharides (singular carbohydrate), to form ATP which is useable energy for the body. The body uses ATP everywhere for all bodily functions, which maintains homeostasis. <span />
