POLYMERIZATION vs. DEPOLYMERIZATION
A ______reaction joins two smaller molecules into a larger molecule.
An ______removes atoms form smaller molecules to help form bonds between them.
During polymerization, a common chemical reaction occurs when enzymes remove a ______group from one molecule and a ______atom from the other molecule.
Enzymes are also essential in that they ______up the bond, (chemical reaction) between molecules when forming larger molecules.
The discarded atoms from each molecule typically form a molecule of ______.
THINK: (This is not from the video…What is another term for ‘condensation’?) ______
Hydrolysis is known as a ______reaction.
It is considered the “______” reverse of condensation the process.
An ______splits the molecule into two parts.
During hydrolysis, a ______group attaches to one ‘part’ and a ______atom to the other ‘part’ to the exposed sites form two smaller molecules.
Both condensation and hydrolysis are used to ______and ______many biological molecules.
