The general term is "polymerization reactions." The main types of polymerization reactions are condensation reactions (a small molecule is lost at each step) or addition reactions (no molecule is lost at each step). Each of these is then further subdivided into categories depending on the specific chemistry that's involved.
Polymerization, which usually requires some kind of catalyst to make it happen fast enough.
Dehydration Synthesis.
Monomers joined together make a polymer.
Monomers are the starting units for making Polymers. For eg: Polyethylene is synthesized by addition polymerisation technique to form Polyethylene. Many monomers join together to form a large macromolecule called as polymer.
Monomers are joined together to form polymers, for example, proteins are a polymer, it's monomer is amino acids, and they are linked by peptide bonds to form a protein
The breaking down of some complex molecules, such as polymers, occurs through a process known as hydrolysis.Hydrolysis takes place in the presence of water containing an acid or a base as catalyst. The water causes polymers to breakdown to monomers. Hydrolysis reactions break bonds and release energy.
Macromolecules.
Monomers joined together make a polymer.
Polymers are the macromolecules formed when monomers join together.polymer
monomers form first oligomers which inturn form polymers
No. Amino acid monomers are used to make protein polymers. Nucleotide monomers are used to make DNA polymers.
Monomers are single units while polymers are monomers linked together. So with polysaccharides being polymers or monomers linked together, then think of a single monomer of sugar such as maltose.

No, a water molecule is released during condensation(dehydration) reactions. There are two opposite reactions: hydrolysis and condensation. Hydrolysis breaks apart polymers into monomers. In the process, water molecules are broken apart to "cap" the ends of the monomers. In condensation reactions, two monomers are joined and a molecule of water is formed and removed.

Two different monomers joined together will form a copolymer.
Like with all nutrients, monomers are joined together by condensation reactions. The carboxyl group and the hydroxyl group come together and produce a water molecule. The monomers are called monosaccharides, two monomers are called disaccharides, and more than two monomers are called polysaccharides.

Biodiesels are primarily derived from many lipid monomers joined together by ester bonds to create polymers. As a result, biodiesels contain oxygen along the polymer chains, so no, they are not hydrocarbons.
