The monomer units of carbohydrates are simple sugars such as glucose.
(Carbohydrate) Monomer- glucose and fructose Polymer- such as starch (Lipids) Monomer- such as fatty acid Polymer- diglycerides and triglycerides (Proteins) Monomer- amino acid Small polymer- Peptides Long polymer- egg protien (Nucleic acid) Monomer- cytosine, quinine, adenine, thymine, and uracil Polymer- DNA and RNA

A monomer is a small molecule that may become shemiclally bonded to other monomers to form a polymer. di peptides - to proteins vb lacose / molecule glucose - galactose / 2 monomer. enz to polysacharides From Belgium Roland:
The basic monomer for proteins is the amino acids.
Amino acids
The monomer is just the subunit that makes up the construction of many units of the polymer. M = monomer M-M-M-M = polymer ( units do not need to be the same )

Peptides are constructed from amino acids. Proteins are constructed from peptide subunits.
Peptone is a mixture of glucose, amino acids, and short peptides produced by digesting protein. (Microbiology: A Human Perspective, page 96)
