What two repeating units make the backbone of DNA and RNA?
In DNA, the backbone is made up of alternating deoxyribose sugar and phosphate groups. In RNA, the backbone is made up of alternating ribose sugar and phosphate groups.
How many repeating units are in a monomer?
A monomer generally consists of one repeating unit that can polymerize to form a polymer through chemical reactions.
DNA is made of what repeating unit?
DNA is not made up out of 2, but 4 repeating units. These repeating units, nucleotides, being Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, and Cytosine.
What is A chain of repeating units are called?
A chain of repeating units is called a polymer. Polymers are large molecules composed of repeating structural units, or monomers, that are linked together by chemical bonds. Examples of polymers include plastics, proteins, and nucleic acids.
Are the repeating units in a molecule of DNA identical?
No
Repeating units of actin and myosin filaments are called?
Repeating units of actin and myosin filaments are called sarcomeres. Sarcomeres are the functional units of skeletal muscle and are responsible for muscle contraction.
What is the name of the repeating pattern of units of a muscle cell?
I do believe you are asking about a sarcomere, units of repeating bands that make up the fibers (myofibrils) of a striated muscle.
Which class of macromolecules is not in repeating units of monomers?
lipids.
Is hydrolysis the synthesis of giant molecules from components of repeating units?
No, hydrolysis is the breakdown of giant molecules into their component units by the addition of water molecules. The opposite process, where giant molecules are synthesized from repeating units, is known as condensation or dehydration synthesis.
Which repeating units make up protein?
Amino Acids
What class of macromolecules in not organized in repeating units of monomers?
lipids
What class of macromolecule is not organized in repeating units of monomers?
lipids
