Which molecule or reaction supplies the energy for polymerization of nucleotides in the process of transcription?

The energy required for DNA replication or polymerization is derived from hydrolysis of the 5'- triphosphate group of a free dNTP.
dNTP stands for all four tri phospate nulceotides such as dATP, dCTP, dTTP, dGTP as they are the building blocks of the DNA molecule. These nucleotides are added to the 3'- hydroxyl group of the growing chain in complementary to template strand.
ATP on the other hand is not involved in DNA synthesis as it is not deoxyribonucleotide, and NTPs (ATP,GTP,UTP,CTP) are the components of RNA.

Why is this polymerization reaction known as addition polymerization?
In this type of polymerization monomers are added successive without any loss of molecule or atom.
What reaction builds one large molecule by combining multiple molecules?
This is a polymerization reaction.
What type organic macro molecule is form polymerization reaction between amino acids?
This macromolecule is a protein.
What type organic macro-molecule is form polymerization reaction between amino acids?
This macromolecule is a protein.
What is the name for the polymerization reaction involving sugars?
carbohydrate polymerase reaction is a condensation polymerization reaction

What reaction builds one large molecule by combining multiple molecules?
This is a polymerization reaction.
What is a addition reaction?
An addition reaction is when 1 molecule combines with another molecule and becomes 1 bigger molecule. There are no other products in this process; just the 2 molecules.
What is concentration polymerization?
If you're talking about condensation polymerization, it is a reaction in which monomers join together to give a long chain molecule (the polymer) and a small molecule, usually water or hydrochloric acid, like Nylon.
What type organic macro molecule is form polymerization reaction between amino acids?
This macromolecule is a protein.
What type organic macro-molecule is form polymerization reaction between amino acids?
This macromolecule is a protein.
What is the name for the polymerization reaction involving sugars?
carbohydrate polymerase reaction is a condensation polymerization reaction
What is the reaction that links monomers to form a chain?
Addition polymer
What reaction adds monomers to a growing polymer chain?
Such reactions are known as polymerization processes, they are of two types 1- addition polymerization and 2- condensation polymerization.
Is polymerization to form polyethylene a chemical or physical property?
Polymerization is not a property; it is a type of chemical reaction.
Is polymerization an example of a decomposition reaction?

What type of reaction connect monomers and what occurs during said reaction?
Monomers are connected together to build a relatively complex (macro) molecule by polymerization reaction. Lets say proteins (polymer) for example are made by peptide bonds connected with "n" number of amino acids (monomers).
