Answer:

polymerization

Step-by-step explanation:

When some monomers get together one by one to form a bigger structure called polymer, the join could be by two processes.

By adition, in which the monomers can loose some of its parts to form a double molecule like proteins.

By condensation, in which the monomers get together with a little help of a third molecules as an enzyme.

Hope this is useful
