Polymers
The term that identifies a reaction that breaks apart macromolecules is "hydrolysis." In hydrolysis, water molecules are used to break the bonds holding macromolecules together, resulting in the formation of smaller molecules or monomers.
Polymers are chemical substances which are made up from smaller units, called monomers. The reaction of joining these monomers to form this larger unit is called polymerisation. (monomers polymerise into polymers). The subunits, or polymers, are typical of the chemical substances. For example, the monomers of proteins are amino acids, monomers of carbohydrates are monosaccharides, monomers of nucleic acids are nucleotides. The reaction itself, by what these monomers are joining together, is a dehydration or condensation reaction.
condensation reactions
hydrolysis (: thankyou come again .
Reactions are speed up by enzymes. Enzymes are type of proteins

condensation reactions
Dehydration synthesis or condensation
Lipids do not have monomers and they themselves are the polymer
This type of reaction is named polymerization.
A condensation reaction is a chemical reaction where man-made polymers are made. Condensation reaction is a reaction that links monomers with the release of water.
