Can anyone explain to me how Addition Copolymers work and how to identify whether a polymer is an Addition copolymer or a condesation polymer?

Another question is if an amino acid has an overall -ve charge lets 2 COO- and only 1 NH3+ then how does it's reaction vary when you react with acids and bases?

Thirldly does anyone know have any short notes for Biochemistry section. If you do please PM with those :) Thanks!

addition copolymers are not exactly in syllabus, if they ask in exam. they'll xplain how it works.
2ndly, if ur reacting the mentioned compound with acid or base, then all of the related groups will react with the acid or base, e.g if u add acid in ur mentioned compound, then the H+ will attach to both of the COO- . to make 2 COOH groups . n NH3+ will remain as it is!
