Polymers

(meaning many parts) When a polymer being formed, two smaller molecules combined by a condensed reaction which produces a larger organic molecule plus water molecule. This specific type of reaction is called dehydration reaction because a molecule of water is removed when a monomer is added to a growing polymer.

major classes of lipids

-phospholipids -steroids -triglycerides -waxes
