Question

Please help me, I am deeply confused in this class and trying so hard to understand. Please give detailed answers. I know some of these might be confusing but your help will really help me learn. The teacher requires detailed answers. Thank you sooooooo much, you have no idea.

Also, I am nearly leaglly blind and I am dyslexic so if you could please write clear it would help so much. I just want to learn like everyone else. SUPER SUPER THANK YOU

5. The following chart contains details about the polymerization of nucleotides into DNA. Fill out the remaining boxes with equivalent information for the polymerization of glucose into cellulose, the assembly of amino acids to form a polypeptide, and the process of triglycerides assembling to form a phospholipid bilayer Please type into the boxes directly. (1pt each box) Polymer stabilized by hydrogen bonds between bases on opposite strands Nucleotides -0H from 5' phosphate Combinatorial DNA on nucleotide diversity in mbines with 3'-OH from base, releasing H20 and forming polymer due to combinations of 4 nucleotides hosphodiester bond Gllicose cellulose Amino acids polypeptide Triglycerides> phospholipid bilayer

Explanation / Answer

Nucleotide to DNA: OH from the 5 Phosphate on nucleotide combines with the 3 OH from base releasing H2O and forming phosphodiester bond.

combinatorial diversity in the polymer is due to the combinations of the 4 nucleotides

Polymer is stabilized by the hydrogen bonding between the opposite strand of DNA

Glucose to Cellulose: OH from the 1 C on glucose combine with the OH of 4 C of next glucose monomer releasing H2O and forming ß 1 4 glycosidic bond.

Diversity in cellulose is due to their association with the ends of cellulose microfibrils.

The polymer is stabilized by the Hydrogen bond between the adjacent glucose monomers

Amino Acids to Polypeptide: The OH group from the COOH of amino acids combines with the H atom from NH2 group of adjacent amino acid and release the H2O molecule to form the Peptide (CO-NH) bond.

Diversity is due to the combination of 20 amino acids. the peptide is stabilized by the H bonding in the amino acids.
