The process for connecting two monomers together is called dehydration synthesis. Dehydration means “removal of water” and synthesis means “to join together”. So in this process, two monomers are covalently bonded by the removal of a water molecule. Each organic monomer has a hydroxyl group on one side and a hydrogen on the other. When two monomers line up side by side, they will have these two functional groups facing one another. The H and the OH will break off of their respective monomers and bond forming a water molecule. This is the dehydration part of the process. Each monomer now has a carbon atom that needs to covalently bond with something, so they bind to each other forming a polymer. That is the synthesis part of the process.

What term is used to describe 100’s or 1000’s of amino acids chemically combined?
hjlf

Answer:

Polypeptide

Explanation:

Amino acids are the building block and simplest unit of protein molecules. The structural composition of each amino acids is made up of an amine group (-NH2), a carboxylic acid group (-COOH), a hydrogen atom (H) and a R side chain that differentiates every amino acid from one another.

In a reaction process called condensation, amino acids are chemically joined together via the amine group of one and the carboxylic group of another. This process releases water molecule (H20) to form a bond called PEPTIDE bond between the amino acids. Several amino acids in their 100’s or 1000’s that are chemically joined this way forms a POLYPEPTIDE chain, which in turn forms the protein molecule.

How does carbon dioxide leave the atmosphere?
Delvig [45]
Plants go through a process called photosynthesis where they take in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere (as well as water and sunlight), and they turn it into oxygen (so we can breathe) and glucose (sugar)!

What is the Mechanical energy when
Scilla [17]

Answer:

ME = 20 * m, where m is the mass of the pendulum

Explanation:

As we know that mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy.

Since the Pendulum at its highest point has zero velocity, its kinetic energy at this point is equal to zero.

Thus, here in this mechanical energy will be equal to the potential energy only.

Potential energy is equal to the product of gravity constant, mass of the body and the height of the pendulum

Thus,

ME = PE\\

PE = m * g* h\\PE = 10 * 2* m\\

PE= 20m

Hence,

ME = 20 * m
