The word polymer means many (poly), units (mer).", "Image ImageDescription": "The repeating units of a polymer are called monomers. By varying the chemical structure of the monomers or by varying the way they are joined together, polymers are created that have different properties. As a result of these differences, forensically they can be distinguished from one another.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
