Biochemistry Dehydration and Hydrolysis Reactions
Polymerization • Polymer- Large molecule made of many parts • Monomer- Subunit or building block for Polymer
Breaking and Forming Polymers • Dehydration Synthesis • “take water out” • Joining monomers to add polymers by adding water • Hydrolysis • “break using water” • Breaking polymers into monomers by adding water
Dehydration Synthesis Monosaccharides Disaccharide Polysaccharide
Dehydration Synthesis • Small molecules are joined together to form larger molecules • Energy is used • Water is released H2O
Dehydration Synthesis • Small molecules are joined together to form larger molecules • Energy is used • Water is released
Hydrolysis • Large molecules are broken apart to produce smaller molecules • Energy is released • Water is used to split the bond H2O
Hydrolysis • Large molecules are broken apart to produce smaller molecules • Energy is released • Water is used to split the bond
Protein formation…Hydrolysis or Dehydration? • Monomer • Amino Acid • Polymer • Polypeptide • Bond • Peptide
