Angela was instructed on a test to make an analogy, or comparison, for polymers. she writes four examples of how polymers are like pearl necklaces. she has many parts to this analogy that make sense, but one part of her analogy does not fit. which is the most likely error in her analogy? a. the pearls are like monomers. b. the thread that connects the pearls is like an ionic bond. c. the entire necklace is like a polymer, or macromolecule. d. stringing the beads onto the thread is like polymerization.

b. The thread that connects the pearls is like an ionic bond.

Explanation:

The pearls are like monomers. Stringing the beads onto thread is like polymerization. The thread that connects the pearls is like a covalent bond. The entire necklace is like a polymer or macromolecule.

b.The thread that connects the pearls is like an ionic bond.

Explanation:

The word polymers comes from the Greek poly, which means "many", and mere, which is "parts", because the macromolecules of these compounds originate by the binding of several units of small molecules, called monomers. For example, the synthetic polymer polyethylene comes from the bonding of various ethylene molecules (monomer). Accordingly Angela's analogy is correct if we think that pearls are like monomers, the whole necklace is like a polymer or macromolecule, stringing the beads onto the thread is like polymerization, and the wire connecting the pearls is like a covalent bond. .
