Question

Which pairing accurately matches a biomolecule polymer with its monomer subunit? A. Carbohydrate and sterols B. Nucleic acid and bases C. Lipid and fatty acids D. Protein and amino acids

Answer 1

D. Proteins and amino acids

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

D option, proteins and amino acids, is the only one that accurately matches the polymer with its monomer since proteins are assemblies of amino acids (there are 20 basic amino acids) that are bonded via consecutive chains or polypeptidic bonds.

Best regards.

Answer 2

The answer is D. Protein is complex macromolecules (also called biomolecule polymer) made up of small subunits called amino acids, which are attached to each other by peptide bonds and form a long chain. In the other choices, biomolecule polymers are provided, but their monomer subunits are wrong.
