The process that breaks apart polymers into monomers by adding water is called… Describe a dehydration synthesis reaction. A dehydration synthesis reaction occurs by… What is the term which refers to the process that breaks apart polymers into monomers by adding water? 1. 2. 3. 4. Hydrant Dehydration Synthesis Hydrolysis Aqualysis Describe a dehydration synthesis reaction. 1. 2. 3. 4. neutralization of a strong acid the breakdown of a large molecule into smaller molecules making a large molecule, losing water in the process making a large molecule, adding water in the process Carbohydrates UNIT 3 UNIT Carbohydrates 3 • The monomer of carbohydrates is a monosaccharide called glucose and makes up sugar. GLUCOSE Carbohydrates • The monomer of carbohydrates is a monosaccharide called glucose and makes up sugar. • Many glucose (sugar) molecules combine to make polysaccharides. UNIT 3 Carbohydrates • The monomer of carbohydrates is a monosaccharide called glucose and makes up sugar. • Many glucose (sugar) molecules combine to make polysaccharides. • Polysaccharides make up starches, pasta, rice, paper, and insect shells. *crunch* UNIT 3 Carbohydrates • The monomer of carbohydrates is a monosaccharide called glucose and makes up sugar. • Many glucose (sugar) molecules combine to make polysaccharides. • Polysaccharides make up starches, pasta, rice, paper, and insect shells. UNIT 3 UNIT Carbohydrates • The monomer of carbohydrates is a monosaccharide called glucose and makes up sugar. • Many glucose (sugar) molecules combine to make polysaccharides. • Polysaccharides make up starches, pasta, rice, paper, and insect shells. • Carbohydrates are made of Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), and Oxygen (O). 3 CARBO-hydrate C H 2O Carbohydrates • The monomer of carbohydrates is a monosaccharide called glucose and makes up sugar. • Many glucose (sugar) molecules combine to make polysaccharides. • Polysaccharides make up starches, pasta, rice, paper, and insect shells. • Carbohydrates are made of Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), and Oxygen (O). • Carbohydrates are burned in the body for short-term energy. UNIT 3 GLUCOSE Carbohydrates • The monomer of carbohydrates is a monosaccharide called glucose and makes up sugar. • Many glucose (sugar) molecules combine to make polysaccharides. • Polysaccharides make up starches, pasta, rice, paper, and insect shells. • Carbohydrates are made of Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), and Oxygen (O). • Carbohydrates are burned in the body for short-term energy. • Polysaccharides burn longer than monosaccharides. UNIT 3 Carbohydrate Cutout Activity • Cut out each of the five hexagons and four rectangles. • On each hexagon, write “Glucose,” “Sugar,” and “Monosaccharide.” • On each rectangle, write “Dehydration Synthesis.” • Paste or tape your hexagons together with the rectangles in between them. UNIT 3 Carbohydrate Cutout Activity As a class, let’s all complete this sentence: “This is a ______________ made from 5 _______________. It was formed by _______________.” UNIT 3 Closure Name/Nombre Date/Fecha Period ____ Draw the dehydration synthesis reaction of two monosaccharides forming a disaccharide. Hint: di means 2 and “tri” means 3. Make sure your reaction shows something being lost!
