Question

question 6 0.5 pts during the breakdown of polymers, which of the following reactions takes place? condensation dehydration hydrolysis nonpolar covalent bond polar covalent bond question 7 0.5 pts an example of a monosaccharide is __. all of these answer choices are correct. fructose glucose galactose ribose question 8 0.5 pts cellulose and starch are examples of __. monosaccharides disaccharides polysaccharides lipids amino acids

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Question 6: Polymers break down via hydrolysis, which uses water to split the polymer into monomers. Condensation and dehydration are for building polymers, and covalent - bond types are not reactions for polymer breakdown.
  • Question 7: Fructose, glucose, galactose, and ribose are all monosaccharides, the simplest form of carbohydrates.
  • Question 8: Cellulose and starch are polysaccharides, complex carbohydrates made up of many monosaccharide units.

Answer:

  • Question 6: C. hydrolysis
  • Question 7: A. All of these answer choices are correct.
  • Question 8: C. polysaccharides
