Answer:

B-protein and amino acids.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amino acids are small, organic molecules, known as building blocks of proteins. Amino acids make proteins by polymerization, during which two amino acids join together by a peptide bond to form polypeptide chain.

Hence, amino acids are monomers and proteins are polymers made up of amino acids. Thus, the correct answer is option (B).
