1 This produces a vertical stretch, where the $\,y$-values on the graph get multiplied by $\,2\,$.  Replace every $\,x\,$ by $\,5x\,$, giving the new equation [beautiful math coming... please be patient] $\,y=2{\text{e}}^{5x}\,$.
The human body contains many natural polymers, such as proteins and nucleic acids. Cellulose, another natural polymer, is the main structural component of plants. Most natural polymers are condensation polymers, and in their formation from monomers water is a by-product.
For cellulose at a glance, click here! Cellulose is one of many polymers found in nature. Wood, paper, and cotton all contain cellulose. Cellulose is an excellent fiber. Wood, cotton, and hemp rope are all made of fibrous cellulose. Cellulose is made of repeat units of the monomer glucose. This is the same glucose which your body metabolizes in order to live, but you can't digest it in the form of cellulose. Because cellulose is built out of a sugar monomer, it is called a polysaccharide.
