A polymer made from 4 units is known as a tetramer or tetrapolymer.

* A single unit is called a monomer and a complex of multiple monomers make a polymer.

The subunits present in the tetramer can be of two types:

1. Homotetramer - all the 4 subunits are similar or homogenous.

2. Heterotetramer- all the 4 subunits are different and thereby vary in chemical composition.
