2. Alcohol

3. Unsaturated compounds are very reactive.

4. Butene has 4 carbon atoms and one double bonds attached to it

Explanation:

1. The polymerization of amino acids gives protein.

Polymerization is a process whereby smaller unit molecules of organic compounds combine repeatedly, in a regular fashion to form a larger organic structure or compound.

The smaller units are called monomers while the larger compound formed are called the polymers.

In this case, the smaller units are the amino acids held or linked together by peptide bonds to form a polymer called proteins.

2.

Compounds with functional group of -OH are called alcohols.

Alcohols are also known as alkanols and they belong to a class of organic compounds where -OH functional group is attached to an alkyl group. They have general formula of CₓH₂ₓ₊₁OH where x refers to the number of carbon atom. They're also categorized into primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols based on the type of carbon in the which the functional group (-OH) is attached to.

3.

Unsaturated compounds are very reactive due to the presence of lone pairs of electrons present in them.

4. Butene actually has 4 carbon atoms and several single bonds attached to it.

Butene has a total of 12 bonds and 1π (pi-bond) while several 11σ (sigma bonds) are attached to it.
