Macromolecules Polymers Linking Monomers
The polymer of the world is made up of the majority. The majority is connected by the monomers and polymerized. Monomers, the basis of polymerization, have different properties. The monomers are connected in a specific way, so they form a bulk polymer.
The principle of polymerization is viewed, if the weaving of the net, the strands are connected. Chemical bonds between monomers are used to make them stable. Either covalent bonds, or other forces, from which they are polymerized to form.
In the biological world, the polysaccharide is formed, and the monosaccharide is its monomer. Glucose is also a common monosaccharide, which is connected by glycosidic bonds to form polysaccharides such as starch and cellulose. Starch provides energy, and cellulose is the support of plant structures, all relying on the work of monomer bonding.
Like egg white, amino acids are monomers. Amino acids have their own characteristics. Their amino groups and carboxyl groups interact with each other, forming peptide bonds and connecting them to form a large fraction of egg white. Egg white has many functions, catalysis, transportation, immunity, etc., which are not related to life, but all have their functions due to monomer bonding.
Larger polymers are widely used in various fields such as chemistry and biology. Their shape and quality vary depending on the combination of monomers, and they also change due to changes in the environment. Knowing the wonders of the connection of monomers, we can explore the mystery of polymers, and there is no end to it in the road of science.
