Answer:

Dehydration reaction is the chemical reaction that links the MONOMERS together by removing a HYDROGEN ATOM form one monomer and an OH GROUP from a second molecule creating a COVALENT BOND between these molecules. The H ATOM and the OH GROUP will be bonded as well to form a water molecule. On the other hand, HYDROLYSIS is a chemical reaction that BREAK down POLYMERS introducing a water molecule and breaking the covalent between the monomers in the polymers.

Explanation:

Carbohydrates, proteins and nucleic acids are polymers of simpler sugars, amino acids and nucleotides respectively. Monomer molecules are joined together to form a polymer by dehydration reactions and a water molecule is released. On the other hand, hydrolytic reactions break down polymers into monomers by adding water molecules to them.

For example, a dehydration reaction joins two amino acids together by a peptide bond (a specific type of covalent bond that joins the amino acids) to form a dipeptide. During the reaction, one amino acid loses an H atom and the other loses its OH group to release a water molecule.

Breakdown of proteins into amino acid occurs by hydrolytic reactions in which water molecules are added to amino acids to breakdown the peptide bonds between them.

Fish and other aquatic life depend on oxygen gas dissolved in the water. which event is most likely to harm aquatic life by redu
RideAnS [48]

The mass flow of currents, or waters, are vital in understanding that how the movement of heat energy takes place between the water bodies of the Earth, atmosphere, and the landmasses.  

About 70 percent of the planet is covered with ocean and holds ninety-seven percent of its water, thus, forming the ocean an important element in the transfer and storage of heat energy through the planet.  

The motion of this heat via the global and local ocean currents influences the stabilization of global climatic patterns, the regulation of local weather conditions and temperature extremes, delivery of nutrients, and cycling of gases in the aquatic ecosystems.  

In the process, an influx of warm water, which elevates the temperature of the lake by 5 degree Celsius is most probably to affect the aquatic life by minimizing the concentration of oxygen in the water.

Compare the features of a river near its source and far down along its course. I cant figure it out.
Leto [7]
I need context for this question. I would suggest that you check where the river comes from and see how that affects the river the further it moves away from its source. This seems to be what the question is asking.
