Why are proteins classified as polymers?
A protein is a chain of amino acids. Polymers are a series of repeated single units, or monomers. In this particular case, amino acid is the monomer and as a chain, it forms protein. Simple enough? -Lys0girl
What type of molecule has a very long helical molecule made of units with distinctive r-groups?
RNA
What is the SHAPE of a lipid molecule?
thier shape is essentially made up of a long chain alkyl group with ~cooh end chain.
What is a covalent compound made up of many small repeating units linked together in a chain called?
A polymer
Kind of molecule made up of a chain of carbons to which hydrogyens are bonded and having a carboxyl group at one end?
A fatty acid

Is ghee a polymer?
YES. it's a polymer made up of repeated units of fatty acids.
Large molecule made of several repeated units?
It's called a polymer ( the single unit is a monomer) a repetitive bonding of a series of smaller molecules, a good example being a complex sugar molecule, a carbohydrate, compose of a string of smaller simple sugars (monosaccharides) to make it a polysaccharide.
