Question

What is the relationship between monomers and polymers? Give an example using proteins.

Answer 1

Monomers are small, simple molecules that can be joined together to form polymers.

Explanation:

Monomers can simply be referred to as smaller sub-units of polymers. Through a process called polymerization, monomers are are linked together into long repeating chains to form polymers
Here's a quick diagram i drew using ms paint to illustrate my point.

Proteins are made up of amino acids linked together. There are 20 types of amino acids and the various combinations of these amino acids gives us various proteins.

Protein- Polymer
Amino Acid- Monomer.

Good Luck
