Enough atoms to create bonding sites.
Cellulose is an easy one. Its monomer is glucose. The formula for glucose is C6H12O6. To allow a glucose molecule to form part of a cellulosic structure, the tree has to "dehydrate" it by removing a hydrogen atom from one end and a hydroxide ion from the other end. You're left with C6H10O5, which then bonds with another like molecule and another and another.

What are the similarities between addition polymerization and condensation polymerization?
Polymerization describes the formation of of large molecules (polymers) with repeating structure from smaller molecules (monomers) . The word polymer comes from Greek words meaning many (poly-) and parts (-mer). Many of the resulting molecules are plastics, so polymer is occasionally used in place of the word plastic, though this is not an accurate usage. Polymerization is an all-encompassing term that describes formation of polymers by any method.There are two main types of polymerization; addition polymerization and condensation polymerization. Addition polymerization creates larger molecules by opening up double bonds on the smaller molecules (monomers). These opened-up bonds react with parts of other monomers (single part) to form dimers (double part). This reaction can repeat to add another molecule to for a trimer (three part). This continues until you obtain the right size molecule and you stop the reaction. Addition polymerixation can occur using a single type of monomer. There are no by products of the reaction except the longer chain molecules (polymers).In condensation polymerization, two monomers of different types are used. They have different types of reactive (or functional) groups on them. A reaction between monomer A and monomer B results in a dimer, plus another small molecule (often water) that is not part of the polymer. To create long polymers the monomers must have reactive groups on both ends or a chain cannot be formed.Polymerization is an all-encompassing term for creating polymers by any method. Condensation Polymerization is a term denoting a specific type of reaction for creating polymers.
What is valcanising?
Vulcanization is the process by which rubber molecules (polymers or macromolecules made of repeating units or monomers called isoprene) are cross-linked with each other by heating the liquid rubber with sulfur. Cross-linking increases the elasticity and the strength of rubber by about ten-fold, but the amount of cross-linking must be controlled to avoid creating a brittle and inelastic substance.
What are the monomers building blocks?
Monomers
Can an electic charge be removed from a proton or electron?
No. Charge must always be conserved.
Can your cells take in nutrients in their original polymeric form?
No, polymers must be broken into monomers, or at least dimers, to be taken into the cells for procession. That is why you have many powerful digestive enzymes.

Can lipids be polymers?
Lipids tend to be large, single molecules with no obvious repeating pattern. They are very important as macromolecules in the life sciences. Polymers which are repeating chains of monomers include carbohydrates, proteins and nucleic acids. Lipids are macromolecules that do not repeat. Ester linkages formed through dehydration Carbohydrates, Proteins and Nucleic Acids are polymers that repeat Cabohydrate glycosidic linkages formed through dehydration.
What type of reaction monomers must undergo to form cellulose?
This reaction is called polymerization.

What must you remove to synthesize large biological molecules?
To synthesize large biological molecules like proteins or DNA, you must remove water molecules in a process called dehydration synthesis. This reaction involves a condensation reaction where a hydroxyl group (-OH) and a hydrogen atom (-H) are removed to form a covalent bond between the molecules, resulting in the formation of a larger biomolecule.
If 8 glucose molecules are joined to make a polysaccaharide what is the formula for the new compound?
C48 H96 O48 (C6H12O6 x 8) ~ new edit : actually the answer is C48 H82 O41 this is because after you combine every two monomers (then to polymers) you must remove water (H2O) this is by dehydration synthesis it says that you need to remove water to make a bond so the final answer is C48 H82 O41 :D
Polysaccharides are formed by dehydration synthesis reaction between monosaccharides what does this mean?
This means that in the process of forming polysaccharides, water molecules are removed as a result of the reaction between monosaccharide molecules. The monosaccharides combine through the removal of a hydroxyl group from one molecule and a hydrogen atom from another, creating a covalent bond between the two molecules to form a larger carbohydrate polymer.
