What are the monomers that make up the 4 biological macromolecules?
Wiki User
∙ 15y ago
The monomers of nucleic acids are nucleotides.
Of polysaccharides: monosaccharides.
Of polypeptides (the chains that make up proteins): amino acids.
Lipids are macromolecules, but are not polymers, so they do not have monomers.

What monomers make up the polysaccharide starch?
Glucose monomers make up the polysaccharide starch.
What to many monomers make up when they are linked together?
monomers are made up of small molecules which join together to make polymers
What are the monomers of the lipids?
Lipids are unlike the other macromolecules in that they do not have monomers per se. They are made up of glycerol and fatty acids, but it's not like DNA which is made up of nucleotides or proteins that are made up of amino acids. However, they are still considered macromolecules as lipids are a large category of important molecules in the human body.
What monomers make up table sugar?
Fructose and glucose
What is the name of the macromolecules that makes up DNA?
Nucleic acids.
Do monomers make up macromolecules?
If the macromolecule is a polymer, then yes it is made of monomers. There can be some irregular macromolecules that are not polymers and thus are not made of monomers, but they are special cases (e.g. carbon nanotubes with attached side groups).
What do proteins nucleic acids carbohydrates have in common?
These are three of the four major biological macromolecules. (The fourth are lipids.) Each of these macromolecules are polymers and are made up of smaller component parts called monomers.
What builds macromolecules up from monomers and releases water?
Dehydration synthesis.
Single unit makes up your macromolecules?
They are called monomers. They build up polymers
What do proteins nucleic acid and carbohydrates have in common?
They are all formed from the same elements.
Most macromolecules are made up of thousands of smaller molecules called?
Monomers.
How are monomers related t o polymers?
Polymers are any number of compounds consisting of millions of repeating units. Monomers are related because they're the building blocks of a polymer.
Which of the four types of macromolecules units called monosaccharides?
They are type of monomers. They build up carbohydrates.
What do lipids and proteins have in common?
Proteins and lipids are both biological macromolecules, which means they are made up of monomers (indiviudal units) to form polymers (many units). They are both formed by dehydration synthesis and broken apart by hydrolysis. In addition, their monomers can both be used as alternate forms to carbohydrates in the metabiolic pathway of cellular respiration.
What monomers make up the polysaccharide starch?
Glucose monomers make up the polysaccharide starch.
The individual molecules that make up polymers are called?
The smaller molecules that make up polymers are called monomers.
What type of organic macromolecules is formed by polymerization reactions between amino?
Amino acids are monomers of proteins. So they build up proteins
