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.

What does ran polymerase do?
Polymerise dna fragments
How the microtubules of the cell cytoskeleton form?
Small unit proteins polymerise when calcium ions are present.
What will happen if you inhale styrene?
The monomer will polymerise in your lungs to form polystyrene. It will feel as though you're breathing through a plastic bag. Not pleasant.

What is made by plants to store energy?
Cellulose as far as I'm aware. The equation for photosynthesis involves creating simple sugars. These sugars then further "polymerise" (don't know if that's the biological term) to create complex sugars such as lignen and the like.

Tubulin
Where Hydrochloric acid found?
One place is in your stomach. It helps to break down food and destroy pathogens. Your stomach lining excretes mucus in order to protect it from the stomach acid. However, when hydrochloric acid is produced for retail, it is usually obtained as a by product of the chlorination reaction. Companies produce vinyl chloride so as to polymerise it, which produces poly vinyl chloride, or PVC, a plastic which can be used, for example, to make window frames or shiny clothes. When vinyl chloride is made, the reaction also produces hydrogen chloride, which can then be collected and sold to whoever wishes to purchase it.
