Answer:

When smaller molecules are bonded together to create larger ones, the smaller molecules are called monomers and the larger molecules that they build are called​ polymers

Step-by-step explanation:

Monomer is a relatively small molecule that can form covalent bonds with other molecules of its type to form a polymer. Polymer is a relatively large molecule consisting of a chain of many identical monomers chemically bonded to each other.
