Question:- What is a long molecule consisting of many similar or identical monomers linked together called?

Answer:

A polymer is a vast molecule mainly made up of a number of similar or the same monomers bonded together in a linked manner of a string. The term polymer is derived from two Greek words, with ‘poly’ meaning many and ‘meros’ -part. Polymers are also known as giant covalent macromolecules and these include at least two monomer units joined together by the process of polymerisation. These monomers can be almost as receptive as they can look a like kind of like identical twins or they can be a little similar but they have to be able to create at least two covalent bonds to form the chain of the polymer that is being made. Some polymers are obtained from natural sources while others can be synthesized; Some polymers include proteins that are made from amino acid, cellulose which is obtained from glucose monomer, plastics that are formed from a variety of organic monomers and DNA as monomers of nucleotides.
