Polymers are large molecules composed of repeated subunits called monomers, which are bonded together to form long chains. These substances are ubiquitous in both natural and synthetic forms, playing critical roles across biological and industrial landscapes. Natural polymers include proteins, which are made up of amino acids, and nucleic acids like DNA and RNA, which are vital for genetic functions. Cellulose and rubber are other examples of naturally occurring polymers.
