Molecules Made Glucose Give Examples Large Smaller Endothermic

Examples of endothermic reactions (making large molecules from smaller ones) include glucose joining to form starch/cellulose, lipids forming from glycerol and fatty acids, and amino acids from glucose and nitrates.

Ejemplos de reacciones endotérmicas (formación de moléculas grandes a partir de pequeñas) incluyen la unión de glucosa para formar almidón o celulosa, la formación de lípidos a partir de glicerol y ácidos grasos, y aminoácidos a partir de glucosa y nitratos.

Front Give some examples where large molecules are made from smaller ones - endothermic reactions.
Back
  • Glucose molecules join together to form starch, glycogen and cellulose.
  • Lipid molecules are made from one molecule of glycerol and three fatty acids
  • Glucose is combined with nitrate ions to make amino acids, then made into proteins
