Hydrolisis reactions are involved in the break down of organic polymers to yield monomer. The reaction involves the splitting of  a water molecule each time a bond in the polymer is broken.

Answer:

Covalent bond

Explanation:

Two monomers join together to form polymer through a covalent bond. This bond is formed by releasing a water molecule through the process of Hydrolysis followed by dehydration . In hydrolysis, a water molecule is broken down and then through dehydration, the water molecule is released.

This overall process of formation of covalent bond, hydrolysis, dehydration and release of water in totality is termed as polymerization.

What is the chemical reaction used to study enzyme activity in the lab (lactase breaking down lactose into its monomers). Know t
Bas_tet [7]

Answer: The chemical reaction in this example is Called hydrolysis in the presence of Lactase

Here is a word equation for the hydrolysis of lactose:

lactose + water → galactose + glucose

Explanation: The equation is called <hydro> + <lysis) of these terms refer to water and splitting respectively. So hydrolysis means splitting with water. Enzymes pull out a monomer by examining where the monomers are connected, and placing a water molecule in between them, resulting in the breakage of the bond between the monomers. Here are two picture to represent it.

9. What are mutations, and how do they increase the genetic variation within a species?
leva [86]

Mutations are changes that occurs in our DNA sequence, either due to mistakes when the DNA is copied or as the result of environmental factors such as UV light and cigarette smoke.

They increase the genetic variation within a species because they can create entirely new alleles in a population, random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis which reshuffles alleles within an organism's offspring.

How do microorganisms affect the quality of soil?
insens350 [35]
The microorganisms found in soil are important because they affect the structure and fertility of soil. Certain bacteria responsible for nitrogen fixation converts nitrogen in the atmosphere, so that it can be used by plants. Because of microbes, nutrients and minerals are made available to plants. Soil with more diverse microbe will result in fewer plant diseases and better crop yield.
