Example of a natural polymer?
The most well known natural polymer is DNA. It is a naturally produced chain of monomers which produce a polymer.
Is carbohydrates a synthetic or natural polymer?
There is no such thing as "a carbohydrate, or many or few carbohydrates" Carbohydrate does not come in units, like vitamins or calories. It is like saying "Is a blood a polymer?" Same as you would say "Is blood a polymer?" the question is "Is carbohydrate a polymer?"
