Question

which of the following is common feature of the illustrated reactions showing the linking of mo form macromolecules? a two identical monomers are joined by a covalent bond. b two different monomers are joined by a covalent bond. c monomers are joined by a covalent bond, and a water molecule is produced.

Explanation:

The reaction shown is a condensation reaction (also called dehydration - synthesis). In such reactions, monomers are linked by covalent bonds and a water molecule is produced as a by - product. The monomers in the reaction are not identical.

Answer:

C. Monomers are joined by a covalent bond, and a water molecule is produced.
