Explanation:

1. A polymer is a large molecule made of smaller building - blocks (monomers) linked by covalent bonds.
2. Monomers are joined to form polymers through condensation reactions.
3. Polymers are broken down into monomers through hydrolysis reactions.
4. Two monomers are covalently bonded through the loss of a water molecule in a condensation reaction.
5. Polymers are broken down into monomers by the addition of a water molecule (hydrolysis).
6. The general formula for carbohydrates is $CH_2O$.
7. Saturated fat is a lipid, not a carbohydrate.
8. Simple sugars are the monomers of complex carbohydrates.
9. A carbohydrate composed of one sugar molecule is a monosaccharide.
10. Starch is the storage polysaccharide produced by plants to store excess glucose.
11. Starch is a carbohydrate, not a lipid.
12. Fatty acids and glycerol are the monomers of lipids.
13. A carbohydrate composed of two sugar molecules is a disaccharide.
14. Glycogen is the storage polysaccharide produced by animals to store excess glucose.
