Starch is a polymer composed of glucose units as monomers. Hydrolysis reaction can break down large molecules into smaller ones.

  • Hydrolysis is a type of chemical reaction in which a water (H2O) molecule is used to break down large molecules into smaller ones.

  • Starch is a complex polysaccharide composed of more than six (6) glucose molecules linked by alpha-glycosidic bonds.

  • Glycosidic bonds can be hydrolyzed by specific enzymes known as glycosidases.

  • A starch molecule composed of 300 glucose molecules contains 299 alpha-glycosidic bonds.

  • In consequence, in this case, 299 water (H2O) molecules are required to completely hydrolyze the amylose starch polymer into glucose monomers.

How is nitrogen metabolism in the prokaryotes vital to other organisms? given the roles of bacteria in the nitrogen cycle, how w
Murljashka [212]
Metabolizing nitrogen in prokaryotes is very important to other organisms since these prokaryotes are able to convert ammonium in the soil to nitrate and, then, the denitrifying bacteria could use the nitrate produced instead of using oxygen in their metabolism in order to release nitrogen molecules. by the denitrification process, thus completing the nitrogen cycle. Without the nitrogen metabolism in prokaryotes, the nitrogen in the atmosphere could not be used or utilized to synthesize essential organic compounds that are needed by other organisms. It is only the prokaryotes that has the ability fixing nitrogen or can do the process of nitrogen fixation.
