Thousandds
Natural
Biopolymers
Specific
CORRECT ANSWER
Polymers are large molecules made by receptive linking of smaller units known as __________.
The terms polymer and monomer are derived from greek roots ________(many), mono (one),
and meros(part). Polymers are classified as macromolecules. A macromolecule is a very large
molecule composed of ___________ of covalently bonded atoms. Polymers can also be
classified as either __________ or synthetic. Natural polymers include rubber, carbohydrates
like starts or cellulose, proteins, and nucleic acids. The biologically relevant natural polymers
are sometimes called _________. Synthetic polymers are created by scientists in a lab for
________ purposes
Q2 QUESTION 2 OF 20
In Addition polymers, the final polymer retains all the atoms of the monomer. On the other
hand, condensation polymers are formed between 2 different functional groups on different
monomer molecules. The final polymer chain does not include all the atoms initially present
in the monomer molecules
CORRECT ANSWER
Describe how addition polymers and condensation polymers differ in terms of the overall
mechanism of their formation.
