Answer:
The formation of large molecules from small repeating units is known as <u>Condensation</u> reactions.
Explanation:
Those reactions in which two molecules join together with a elimination of small neutral molecule like H₂O, CH₃OH, HCl e.t.c are known as condensation reactions.
Polymerization reactions are those reactions in which small molecules called as monomers join together to form a large molecule also known as polymers. These reactions are done via different mechanisms among which one is the condensation reaction.
Example:
Proteins (polymer) are made up of amino acids (monomers) through condensation reaction as,
n H₂N-RH-COOH → H₂N-[-RH]n-COOH + n H₂O
In above equation "n" represent large number, H₂N-RH-COOH represent amino acid (monomer) and H₂N-[-RH]n-COOH represent protein (polymer). While, the H₂O eliminated is the small neutral molecule.
The answer to this question is D.
