Z is an z,zmodule homomorphism since for all r, s, a. Note that even though aand care the same modules in the example, z znz is not isomorphic to z, making the two exact sequences not equivalent.

An algebraic structure may have more than one operation, and a homomorphism is required to preserve each operation. To come from a zmodule to an abelian group simply forget the scalar.
