Answer:

Amino acids.

Explanation:

Polypeptide is a primary structure of a protein. It is formed by joining amino acids by peptide bonds in a linear sequence. In other words, polypeptide is a polymer of amino acids held by peptide bonds. A peptide bond is formed when the carboxylic group one amino acid reacts with an amino group of another amino acid. The amino group loses a hydrogen atom (H) and the carboxylic group loses a hydroxyl (OH) to form water (H2O), when the peptide bond is formed. Thus, amino acids are the monomers of a polypeptide.

1. The right answer is in a discontinuous manner.

During DNA replication, the DNA polymerase synthesizes complementary DNA by mating on both strands, since the two strands are antiparallel, the replication is bidirectional, which means that one of the two strand is synthesized in a direction opposite to that of the direction of the enzyme, to do this, the DNA polymerase is obliged to synthesize DNA in the form of small fragments which are called Okazaki fragments, and its synthesized discontinuously (these fragments are not glued together by phosphodiester liasons, it is only after that another enzyme will intervene to ligate these fragments (DNA ligase).
