Solution Steps

Step 1: Understand the Properties of Polymers

Polymers are large molecules composed of repeating structural units, typically connected by covalent chemical bonds. They are known for their versatility and high molecular weight. Polymers can be either natural or synthetic, meaning they are not exclusively synthetic.

Step 2: Identify the Property Not Common to All Polymers

The question asks which property is not common to all polymers. While polymers are versatile, have high molecular weight, and are made from repeating units, they are not all synthetic. Natural polymers, such as proteins and cellulose, occur naturally and are not synthetic.

Final Answer

The property that is not a characteristic of all polymers is that they are synthetic. Therefore, the answer is:

\(\boxed{\text{synthetic}}\)
