Question

Macromolecules are formed by combining single units, called _________, together to form a chain, called ___________.

Question 1 options:


A). Monosaccharides; proteins


B). Monomers; polymers


C). Atoms; elements

Answer 1

The answer is B, because Macromolecules are formed by combining single units, called Monomers. The monomers combine with each other using covalent bonds to form larger molecules known as polymers.

Answer 2

Macromolecules are formed by combining single units, called monomers, together to form a chain, called polymers.

Answer: Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Polymers are substances that are formed when many molecules of monomers are linked together to form a complete chain, this may be a homopolymer when identical monomers are linked together or a heteropolymer in which non identical monomers are linked together.

Many of our biomolecules are polymers that arise by continuous linkage of monomers for example protein which contains amino acids as its monomers.
