Usually by addition of a catalyst. Some are formed at high temperature or pressure.
by adding monomers to create a polymer, at a certain time, a polymer becomes a macromolecule
A polymer is a large molecule made up of repeating units. These units are called monomers. In a polymer, monomers may be both identical or non identical. In polyamide, as the name suggests, the monomers are amides and it is a polymer.
Lipids do not have monomers and they themselves are the polymer
A polymer is build out of its monomers.
Linking bonds, most often dehydration reactions, where atoms/molecules are removed from certain ends of the monomers, forming an H2O molecule (water) and the monomers then join up. However, that is a general formula.
A collection of monomers is more disordered than polymers. More linked subunits in varied arrangements allows for more random movement, bond formations, and thus energy release. The entropy of a group of monomers is greater than a polymer of the same size.
A polymer is a macromolecule made up of repeating units called monomers that are covalently bonded together. Examples of polymers include proteins, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates. The unique arrangement of monomers in a polymer determines its specific properties and functions.
A lipid is both a polymer and monomer. Polymer: Triglyceride Monomers: glycerol and fatty acids
In a polymerization process, monomers are linked together by chemical bonds to form a polymer chain. This typically involves a reaction where the monomers undergo a series of steps to form polymer chains of various lengths. The process can be initiated by heat, light, or a catalyst, and the resulting polymer can have different properties depending on the monomers used and the polymerization conditions.
Proteins
Monomers.
A polymer is formed when monomers are joined together through chemical bonds. Polymeric macromolecules can have a wide range of functions and properties depending on the specific monomer units and how they are linked. Examples of polymers in nature include proteins, DNA, and carbohydrates.
