- Many kinds of biomolecules are made of smaller monomers that are put together in different sequences. a good example is carbohydrates. polysaccharides is formed by combining monosaccharides. when to monosaccharides combine together, a disaccharide is formed. when more than three monosaccharides combine, a polysaccharide is formed. essay question: What process results in the formation of polysaccharides from monosaccharides? Condensation or hydrolysis. Explain your answer by giving examples. Show the chemical reaction taking place.arrow_forwardSelect the statement that correctly describes the connection between two nucleotides: A phosphodiester bond would form between the phosphate groups of each of the nucleotides. A phosphodiester bond would form between the base of one nucleotide and the phosphate of the second nucleotide. A phosphodiester bond would form between a purine base of one nucleotide and a hydroxyl group of the second nucleotide. A phosphodiester bond would form between the phosphate group of one nucleotide and a hydroxyl group of the second nucleotide.arrow_forwardDraw the structured formula for cytosine and guanine bonded together with hydrogen bonds as they would look in DNA.
