Chubs · Answer 1

Condensation Polymerization

Explanation:

When a small molecule reacts with the large molecule (with complex structure or large structure), then usually a new larger or complex structure is produced. Every time such reactions takes place, a by product is released such as water, methanol etc.

For example -

Production of Cellulose -

A cellulose if formed of polypeptide chains of proteins (polysaccharide), poly (β-hydroxybutyric acid) and a polyester in presence of microorganisms that act as catalyst.

The best describes the process That adds a monosaccharide to an existing to an existing Polysaccaride.

Explanation:

Disaccharides are structure when two monosaccharides experience a parchedness reaction. They are held with each other by a covalent bond. we understand Sucrose is the most notable disaccharide, which is made out of the monomers glucose and fructose.

Monosaccharides encounter a parchedness reaction. They are held together by a covalent bond. Sucrose is the most notable disaccharide, which is made out of the monomers glucose and fructose.
