Question

match the following vocabulary words
catalyst
large molecule made of smaller
ones
to make a whole biomolecule
small molecule that links together
choose
protein
monomer
polymer
enzyme
monosaccharide

Explanation:

• Small molecule that links together to make a whole biomolecule: A monomer is a small molecule that can bond with other monomers to form a polymer (a larger biomolecule). For example, amino acids are monomers that link together to form proteins (a type of polymer).
• Large molecule made of smaller ones: A polymer is a large molecule composed of many repeating subunits (monomers). For instance, starch is a polymer made of glucose monomers.
• Catalyst: Enzymes are biological catalysts. They speed up chemical reactions in living organisms without being consumed in the process.

Answer:

• "small molecule that links together to make a whole biomolecule": monomer
• "Large molecule made of smaller ones": polymer
• "Catalyst": enzyme
