The links in the chain are called monomer units and they are made up of amino acids. All together they are a polypeptide chain.

Chain of monomers that are chemically bonded together?
A chain of monomers is called a polymer, if it is sufficiently long. (We'd probably say something like trimer if there were only three.) Polymers can be formed by electrophilic addition, for instance polythene, or condensation, for instance a protein.
What is the name of the second link in a food chain?
its called secondary
What does a string of amino acids from?
A polypeptide chain that eventually is formed into a protein
How are polymers classified on the basis of structure?
Polymers are synthesized from monomer units and are composed of thousands of repeating chain units. The length and branching of these chains will help to determine the structural properties of the polymer Terry
Do amino acids link up to form proteins?
Yes they do.. Protein are polymers of amino acid.

What is the process by which monomers link together to form polymers?
That's called polymerization.
What is part of a chain called?
A link
Is polymer chains made of large molecules?
This is a valid statement, however it requires a little mind bending. Large organic molecules essentially are linked polymers to create a monomer. However, traditionally monomers are considered to be molecules that link easily in a chain and polymers are the chain, so in that way, this statement could be considered incorrect.
What is a piece of something called?
A piece of chain is called a "link".
Is the strongest point in a chain the weakest?
You might be thinking of the expression, "A chain is as strong as its weakest link." This means that when the ends of a chain are pulled in opposite directions, there is stress on each link; when the weakest link breaks, the chain breaks.
How do polymers form?
monomers are the small atoms or molecules which joint covalently to form polymers,,,,,,,this process of polymer formation is called polymerizatin,,,,,,,,polymerization is of two types,,,,,1.addition polymerizatin2.condensation polymerization.
What is the chemical reaction by which monomers are linked together to form polymers?
This type of reaction is named polymerization.
What is a level or feeding group called in a food chain?
Most chains have links so I would say that each step is called a link.
What is the name of the second link in a food chain?
its called secondary
How does a polymer forms?
A polymer consists of repeated, linked units. The units may be identical or structurally related to each other. Monomers link to form polymers through a chemical reaction called a condensation reaction.
