Front (Question)

Polymerisation

Back (Answer)

Monomers -> polymer

#12
Front (Question)

Condensation reaction

Back (Answer)

• Used to form polymers • Occurs between monomers • One molecules of water is produced every time a bond is formed. • ^ Known as Anabolism or anabolic reaction.

#13
Front (Question)

Hydrolysis reaction

Back (Answer)

• Used to breakdown polymers • Occurs between monomers • One molecules of water is needed to break the bond. • ^ knowns as Catabolism or catabolic reactions

#14
Front (Question)

Metabolism

Back (Answer)

The chemical reactions of life. Metabolism= Anabolism + Catabolism
