Cellulose is a natural polymer with thousands of identical sugar molecules linked together.
Protein would be a like a train with different freight cars since it has many different amino acids linked together.

Why are homo and heterogeneous mixtures different?
There is no such thing as a homozygous mixture but homozygous is having identical pairs of genes for any given pair of hereditary characteristics. A heterogeneous mixture is where the substance is not evenly mixed, and a homogeneous mixture is where the two or more substances are evenly mixed molecularly but not bonded together.
What is polymer blending?
Jump to: navigation, searchA polymer blend or polymer mixture is in which at least two polymers are blended together to create a new material with different physical properties.
What characterizes a homogeneous mixture?
The substances are evenly distributed throughout (apex)
How many molecules are there in the mixture compared to the total number in substances B and C?
If B and C are the components of the mixture the total number of molecules is identical.
How can you tell if a green powder is a compound or mixture?
it has a different smell for a compound and a different color in a mixture
How are the particles in a compound different to them in a mixture?
If you think to atoms they are identical.
Is a nature- identical flavor a compound?
The flavoring in food is a mixture, often of dozens of different compounds.
What is the same about all the compounds in crude oil?
Either Hydrocarbons, monomers,plastics or polymers
Is concrete a compound or a mixture?
Mixture but because its identical it is a solution
Is a twix bar a homogeneous mixture?
No, A twix bar would be considered a heterogeneous mixture. The cookie and the caramel (not to mention the chocolate) can be physically separated from each other and they are not identical. By definition, a homogeneous mixture must be uniform (or identical) throughout the sample. Twix is not uniform.
What are the characteristics of heterogeneous mixtures?
A heterogeneous mixture has two or more distinct phases with different characteristics. Because of this, two random samples of a heterogeneous mixture may have different compositions. For example, the phases in mud are the water and soil particles, which remain distinct from one another. These phases are not necessarily visible, but may exist as microscopic clusters or particles. By contrast in a homogeneous mixture any two random samples will be identical.

Is bread element compound or mixture?
Mixture. Its composition is not identical throughout. bread is made from dough which is made from flour which is a mixture. Thus, according to the transitive property, bread is a mixture. Bread, as well as other baking recipes is a mixture. The components are not Chemically changed.
Why microemulsion known as isotropic mixture?
The meaning of isotropic is with identical properties independent on the direction.
Can you add polymer into Portland cement and plaster a wall with it?
You can plaster a wall with Portland cement and fine sand mixture. Polymers are plastics and I've found nothing on using them in a mixture to plaster a wall.
