Which formula represents a polysaccharide that consists of five monosaccharides joined together by dehydration synthesis?
Maslowich

The correct answer is option D, that is, C30H52O26.  

The majority of macromolecules are formed as single building blocks or subunits, known as monomers. The monomers attach to each other through covalent bonds to produce bigger molecules called polymers. In performing so, the monomers discharge molecules of water as byproducts. This kind of reaction is called dehydration synthesis.  

In a dehydration synthesis reaction among the two un-ionized monomers, like monosaccharide sugars, the hydrogen of one monomer merges with the hydroxyl group of another monomer, discharging a water molecule in the process.  

The withdrawal of a hydrogen from one monomer and the withdrawal of a hydroxyl from the other monomer permits the monomers to share electrons and produce a covalent bond. Therefore, the monomers, which are combined together are being dehydrated to permit for the production of a larger molecule.

The elevated blood potassium prompts aldosterone discharge from the adrenal cortex. The aldosterone is foremost mineralocorticoid hormone which is a steroid hormone formed by the zona glomerulosa of the adrenal cortex in the adrenal gland however the adrenal cortex is the outside portion of the gland that yields hormones that are vivacious to life such as cortisol which aids control metabolic rate and helps the body react to anxiety and aldosterone which aids control blood pressure.
