- In principle, there are many different, chemically diverse ways in which small molecules can be linked to form polymers. For example, the small molecule ethene (CH2=CH2) is used commercially to make the plastic polyethylene (...–CH2–CH2– CH2–CH2–CH2–...). The individual subunits of the three major classes of biological macromolecules, however, are all linked by similar reaction mechanisms, i.e., by condensation reactions that eliminate water. Can you think of any benefits that this chemistry offers and why it might have been selected in evolution?arrow_forwardWhat is the approximate molecular weight of a protein with 682 amino acid residues in a single polypeptide chain?arrow_forwardThe functions of biomolecules in cells and organisms are enabled by their specific chemical properties. Many biological macromolecules are polymers comprised of monomer molecules held together by specific types of bonds. Give the names of the corresponding monomer and type of bond that constitute the following polymeric macromolecules. Polymer Monomer BondNucleic AcidPolysaccharideProteinarrow_forward
