Question 4: organic molecules made of sugars and their polymers. consists of
monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides
Answer:
carbohydrates
Question 5: a polymer composed of glucose monomers, but the glycosidic linkages are different because there are 2 different ring forms of glucose
Answer:
structural polysaccharides Question 6: molecules which contain the same atoms but the groups around a double bond are arranged differently; same formula, same connections, different arrangement in space
Answer:
geometric isomers Question 7: macromolecules that are polymers of a few hundred or thousand monosaccharides.
Answer:
polysaccharides Question 8: a glucose polymer that is used as a storage polysaccharide in plants
Answer:
starch Question 9: non-polar(electrons shared equally);the arrangement of this in sex hormones can also affect their shape and function
