3. Match the description with the key terms given below in blue: --- polymerization macromolecule peptide dehydration hydrolysis a. A protein is a polymer built by linking together amino acids which are monomers. The bond that links amino acids together in a protein is called a peptide bond. b. In a dehydration (also called condensation) reaction, 2 or more molecules combine to form a larger molecule with the loss of water. c. A hydrolysis reaction breaks apart another molecule by adding water. 4. Name the four groups of macromolecules of life and fill in the table (with the following key words): CHO CHONS CHONP CHO with lots H lipid carbohydrate Nucleotides amino acids monosaccharides glycerol & fatty acids nucleic acids Polysaccharide DNA, RNA proteins fats, oils, steroids, phospholipids, wax Group Elements Monomer Polymer Functions 1. carbohydrate Quick energy Energy storage Structure of cell walls 2. 3. 4.
