Large polymers are often called macromolecules.

A carbon based molecule is a polymer. Edit: A carbon based molecule does not have to be a polymer, although some polymers are carbon based. For example methane - CH4 is carbon based and not a polymer. Carbon based molecules are called organic compounds.
A polymer is a large molecule that is formed by more than 5 monomers. Polymers are also found in macromolecules.
A nucleotide is a single structural unit of DNA. If two or more nucleotides are combined together by a polymerase enzyme, the resulting molecule is a polymer. RNA is also composed of nucleotides and can be formed into polymers.
Nucleotides.Both DNA and RNA are nucleic acids, and are polymers of nucleotides. A nucleotide has three components: a pentose (five-carbon sugar), and attached to different parts of it a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base (either a purine or a pyrimidine).The monomers (units) of RNA are ribonucleotides, meaning that the pentose is ribose. The monomers of DNA are deoxyribonucleotides, because their sugar is deoxyribose.The nucleotides in a nucleic acid are not all identical. There are four kinds in each nucleic acid, differing only in their bases. The bases in the nucleotides of RNA are cytosine, uracil, adenine, and guanine. Those in DNA are nearly the same, but in place of uracil is thymine.
There are four types of bases in DNA: adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine. However, a molecule of DNA may be a polymer of millions of these bases in a specific arrangment.
Polymer is a long molecule composed of repeating units called monomers. As DNA consists of adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine repeating, it is called polymer.
A carbon based molecule is a polymer. Edit: A carbon based molecule does not have to be a polymer, although some polymers are carbon based. For example methane - CH4 is carbon based and not a polymer. Carbon based molecules are called organic compounds.
A polymer is a large molecule that is formed by more than 5 monomers. Polymers are also found in macromolecules.
DNA is a molecule responsible for the genetic instructions, development and functioning of living organisms. The DNA molecules that contain millions of nucleotides and is very large, called DNA polymer.
No. A monomer is a small molecule that may bind chemically to other monomers to form a polymer. It is the polymer that is the large molicule.
