EPISODE 2: monosaccharides

Mr. Hyde, like Jekyll and Hyde?

You can remember it as Cho like Cho Chang from HP if you like HP

EPISODE 1: dehydration synthesis

    In a dehydration synthesis reaction, the hydrogen of one monomer combines with thehydroxyl (OH) group of another monomer, releasing a molecule of water. At the same time, the monomers share electrons and form covalent bonds. As additional monomers join, this chain of repeating monomers forms a polymer. Different types of monomers can combine in many configurations, giving rise to a diverse group of macromolecules. Even one kind of monomer can combine in a variety of ways to form several different polymers: for example, glucose monomers are the constituents of starch, glycogen, and cellulose.

CATALYST = the meddling friends. they speed up either the bonding or the break uphydrolysis

the end is 100% neccessary. it’s for science.

it really looks like they’re holding hands = hooray a way to remember it

welcome to my blog!

this is a blog with educational comics, starting with biology

in the comics are jokes and drawings to help you remember stuff

if you like this blog, or think it’s helpful, or have any suggestions, send me a message! i’d love to hear from you!

i’m using the openstax college biology textbook for reference, you can download it for free! here:
