    This document contains an chemistry tutorial about biological polymers. It includes questions about finding alternative sources to petroleum compounds due to limited resources. It asks about major petroleum uses like fuels and plastics. It defines cellulose as a condensation polymer and asks for the condensation polymerization equation. It explains the difference between biological polymers like cellulose and biopolymers like PHBV. It also discusses cellulose's rigidity from its bonding structure and outlines the production of PHBV, evaluating its use based on properties.
