Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Monomers combine together to form polymers. Monomers are the repeating units of small molecules which link together to form polymers and the process is called as polymerization.
Two types of polymers:
- • Synthetic and biopolymers.
- • Biopolymers are
naturally occurring polymers. DNA is an example for biopolymer and these types of polymers are synthesized by cells. Cotton also serves as an example for biopolymer. - • Polymers synthesized by scientists are called synthetic polymers and some two examples for synthesized polymer are nylon and polyester.
