Question

Proteins, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids are all polymers. What repeating subunit is each made of?

Answer 1

Most large biological molecules are polymers, long chains made up of repeating molecular subunits, or building blocks, called monomers. ... Carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and proteins are often found as long polymers in nature.

Answer 2

Amino acids. These class of compounds are considered the building blocks of most organisms, and around 500 of these are known and indentified. All proteins, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids are polymers ("many units") and each unit is an amino acid.
