<u>Answer:</u> Polymers are made of individual sub-unit called "Monomers".

<u>Explanation:</u>

A relatively giant molecule consisting of a chain or network of many chemically bonded monomers identical or similar to each other are termed as together "Polymer". The covalent bond linkage take place between such relatively small molecules named as monomers and showcase a polymer.

This can be understood more easily from daily life example of monomers and polymers which is sugar, used for taste addition in tea or coffee. Regular table sugar is disaccharide sucrose ( which is a polymer), consists of fructose and glucose monosaccharides (which are monomers).

Polymers are made of individual subunit called monomer.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Polymers are lengthy chains built up of replicating molecular subunits, named monomers. The term polymer becomes from poly- (many) and -mer (part). A polymer may be a real or manufactured macromolecule composed of recurring units of a smaller molecule (monomers). The term monomer comes from mono- (one) and -mer (part).

Monomers make polymers by creating chemical bonds or confining supramolecular by a method called polymerization. Examples of polymers comprise plastics like polyethylene, silicones. Polymerization is the method of covalently bonding the smaller monomers into the polymer. While polymerization, chemical groups are failed from the monomers so that they may join together.

Nikitich [7]
Enzymes are made of strings of amino acids chemically bonded to one another. These bonds give each enzyme a unique structure, which determines its function. They mostly break down carbohydrates and fats. Once a protein source reaches your stomach, hydrochloric acid and enzymes called proteases break it down into smaller chains of amino acids. Amino acids are joined together by peptides, which are broken by proteases.

What is a cells DNA like the books in a library
tino4ka555 [31]
Think of it this way:

DNA inside cells store all the genetic information on a person's looks, eye colour, hair colour etc. It makes them unique. The analogy of being like books in a library basically suggests that in a library there is so much information and every book is different with different knowledge... That's basically what DNA is; millions of different information things.
