Proteins have their monomers joined by peptide bonds. These monomers are amides. A number of amides are bond by peptide bonds to make proteins.
Covalent bond
These bonds are covalent.

In dehydration synthesis reactions, compounds gain water
ester bonds
These are called polymers. They are made by a large number of monomers bond together. These polymers are macro molecules.

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.

Covalent bond
Monomers chemically bond to make polymers in the process of polymerization.
