Answer:
RNA is a polymer because it is made up of many monomers called nucleotides. Moreover, RNAs can form macromolecules because many RNAs are large molecules (i.e., polynucleotide chains).
Explanation:
Ribonucleic acid (RNA) can be defined as a single-stranded nucleic acid polymer of the four nucleotides. In RNA, each nucleotide is composed of a 1-ribose sugar, a 2-phosphate group and 3-one of four types of nitrogenous bases: Adenine (A), Cytosine (C), Guanine (G), and Uracil (U), which are covalently bonded to form polynucleotide chains. There are different types of RNAs such as mRNA, tRNA, rRNA, miRNA, circ-RNAs, lncRNAs, etc. Many of these RNAs form large single-stranded (ss) molecules, i.e., polynucleotide chains. For example, an mRNA sequence may have a length of 5,000 nucleotides (5 kb) or even more, and there are RNA viruses that have more than 20000 nucleotides (20 kb) in length.
