Pairs of sugars
Nucleic acids are made up of monomers called nucleotides, which consist of; a sugar, a phosphate part and an N-containing base.
nucleotide = in a nucleic-acid chain, a subunit that consists of a sugar, a phosphate, and a nitrogenous base. The subunit in a nucleic acid chain that consists of a sugar a phosphate and a nitrogenous base is a nucleotide.

Absolutely not.Proteins have an amine-carboxyl backbone with any of 20 possible side groups.Nucleic acids a sugar-phosphate backbone with only 4 possible side groups, called bases.

The sugar-phoshate part is what makes up the backbone, ribose in RNA and 2-Deoxyribose in DNA with a single phosphate group per nucleotide.
