Answer:
A polymer is a large single chain-like molecule in which the repeating units derived from small molecules called monomers are bound together. The process by which monomers are transformed into a polymer is called polymerisation. For example ethylene polymerizes to form polyethylene.

Polymerization, any process in which relatively small molecules, called monomers, combine chemically to produce a very large chainlike or network molecule, called a polymer. The monomer molecules may be all alike, or they may represent two, three, or more different compounds.
