Cells synthesise different molecular chains using distinct monomers, as shown in the two examples below - VCE - SSCE Biology - Question 1 - 2021 - Paper 1

This statement is correct. Condensation polymerisation involves the joining of monomers with the elimination of small molecules such as water, which aligns with the formation of bonds X and Y.

This statement is incorrect. The formation of chemical bonds typically does not release energy for immediate use in the cell; rather, it might require energy input.

This statement is not relevant to the formation of these particular chemical bonds, as the Calvin cycle primarily concerns the synthesis of glucose and does not directly relate to the formation of bonds X and Y.
