looking at the title, I think we are learning about Carbon Chemistry and how every thing we use in our daily lives are made up by carbon chemistry. I see a lot of pictures and captions when I flip threw the pages, which I think it's a non-fiction or informational text. I see a table of contents, glossary and table of contents.

Synthetic Polymer: A example of a S.P. is plastic, because it is produced/made by people and it doesn't occur in nature.

Similar: they both involve carbon because on page 26 the author states "Almost all polymers contain carbon." This shows how they both have carbon.

Difference: Natural polymer is produced in/from nature, while Synthetic polymer is made by people and isn't made/created from or in nature.

No, because if we were to eat food and digest it, it would stay in our stomach without enzymes. If we didn't have enzymes most of the chemical reactions in our body would move to slowly for our body to work. I say this because in the text on page 39 it states "there are hundreds of thousands of chemical reactions taking place in your body. Most of these reactions would proceed much too slowly for your body to work properly if it were not for enzymes." This shows how without enzymes we will or would have several problems in our body like moving or digestion. And in 2 captions it stated "Enzymes are involved in every stage of digestion. Without exymes, a meal would stay in the stomach for a very long time." It also says "All chemical processes in the body, including respiration, requires enzymes to occur." This shows how enzymes affect our life daily. Therefore, without enzymes we would/could/might/will struggle with a lot of bodily functions that we do everyday.

C: On page 39, it's said "Enzymes are proteins that speed up the rate at which chemical reactions take place. Scientists have identified thousands of different enzymes in the human body. All of the enzymes needed for digestion are produced within your body."

E: This shows me that enzymes are a very important type of proteins that helps to digest foods. It is important to digest food because humans need to release energy in their body. It helps the body to provide the sustained energy needed for many activities. Therefor, without enzymes, people would not have enough energy to survive and provide energy to other parts of their body.

S: To sum up, I think a person can not survive without enzymes.

Differences:

Natural Polymers- They are naturally made up from living things like silkworms, mulberry leaves, turtle's shells and ani,also like lobsters and spiders.

Synthetic Polymers- They are discovered and produced by humans and not naturally, for example, plastic bottles and bag.

Complex Carbonhydrates are made up of many monmers unlike simple carbonhydrates and they are digested slowly over a period of time. On page 35, in the second pargarph it's siads "Because they are large molecules, they are digusted more slowly and the enrgy is released in a constant manner. These are alled complex carbonhydrates. Complex Carbonhydrates provide the susrtained snergy needed for the sthletic activities." This shows me that complex carbinhydrates digust slowly and it releases in constant manner. for example complex carbonhydrates includes grain breads, oats, brown rice, and pastas.

C: "Most of these reactions would proceed much too slowly for your body to work properly if it were not for enzymes. Enzymes are proteins that speed up the rate at which chemical reactions take place."

E: the author explains in this sentence how we wont be able to process properly and how slow our body will work without enzymes.
