Question

What are the monomers used to make carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids?

Answer 1

Answer:

A monomer is a small molecular subunit that can be combined with similar subunits to form larger molecules. In living systems, like our own bodies, these larger molecules include carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids and proteins.

The monomers of these organic groups are:

Carbohydrates - monosaccharides

Lipids - glycerol and fatty acids

Nucleic acids - nucleotides

Proteins - amino acids

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

Monosaccharides, Nucleotides,  Amino acids

Explanation:

Monosaccharides are the monomers that make up carbohydrates. Glucose is an example of a monosaccharide.  Nucleotides are the monomers that make up nucleic acids. Amino acids are the monomers that make up proteins.
