How is PHA (Polyhydroxyalkanoates) made? I would appreciate a full answer but don't make it to complicated. Thanks.

Polyhydroxyalkanoates or PHAs are straight polyesters created in nature by bacterial aging of sugar or lipids. They are delivered by the microbes and store carbon and vitality. More than 150 distinct monomers can be consolidated inside this family to give materials with to a great degree diverse properties.
Hope this helps
