Match each statement with the correct term.
Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.
This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. A type of biopolymer with long polymers composed of 13 or more nucleotide monomers.
Polypeptides

2. A type of biopolymer with linear bonded polymeric carbohydrate structures.
Bioceramics
Polysaccharides
Polynucleotides
Porous Materials
3. Type of biocomposites - a material which consists of voids/pores.
Biominerals
Polypeptides
Bioinert Materials
Porous Materials
4. Type of biocomposites that consists of a matrix reinforced by a dispersed phase in form of particles.
Biosensor
Particulate Composites
Fibrous Composites
Biopolymers
5. Materials that upon placement within the human body starts to dissolve (resorbed) and slowly replaced by advancing tissue (such as bone) i.e. tricalcium phosphate - polylactic- polyglycolic acid copolymers
