Match the monomer to the correct polymer. (Link one from the top list to one from the bottom list, until each one has a link to one from the other.)
--
1a. polypeptide/protein
1b. polysaccharide
1c. nucleic acid
1d. lipid
--
2a. monosaccharide
2b. nucleotide
2c. fatty acid
2d. nucleotide

Answer:

        Polymer                                                Monomer      

1. Polypeptide/protein -----------------------→ Amino acid

2. Polysaccharide ------------------------------→  Monosaccharide

3. Nucleic acid  -----------------------------------→ Nucleotide

4. Lipid ----------------------------------------------→ Fatty acid

Explanation:

Monomers are simple molecules that when joined together and form chains become polymers, a process called polymerization, which is mediated by polymerase enzymes.

Monomers are simple molecules that when joined together and form chains become polymers, a process called polymerization, which is mediated by polymerase enzymes.

  • Peptides and proteins are formed by the addition of specific amino acid sequences.
  • Polysaccharides, or complex sugars, are formed by the addition of monosaccharides, such as glucose.
  • A nucleic acid, such as DNA or RNA, consists of chains or strands that are formed by nucleotide sequences.
  • Lipids are the polymerized form of fatty acids.
