The polymers of proteins are called polypeptides. The building blocks or monomers of each polypeptide is composed of amino acids. There are only 20 amino acids, though long chains ensure diversity.

Is a protein polymer or monomer?
Definitely a polymer. Protein is made of many monomers of amino acids.
What is the monomer of the polymer starch?
If starch is the polymer, then the monomer is glucose, which is a monosaccharide. Starch is a polysaccharide that is made up of glucose molecules.
What monomers make up glycogen?
Glycogen is made up of glucose monomers. These monomers are combine in alpha-1,4 linkages with alpha 1,6 linkages used to create branches. Glycogen also has a small protein component that is used to initiate the glycogen polymer called glyocgenin.
1 what is the relationship between a polymer and a monomer really need help?
each polymer is made up of several monomers
What is the difference between a cross linked polymer and a polymer?
Cross linked polymers are made of 2 or more monomers whereas a simple polymer is made up of a single monomer.
Is a protein polymer or monomer?
Definitely a polymer. Protein is made of many monomers of amino acids.
What is one molecule called that makes up the links in a polymer chain?
a monomer.
What element makes up polystyrene?
Polystyrene is a synthetic polymer made from the monomer styrene. This monomer is a liquid petrochemical and can be rigid or foam.
What is a protein and what is the monomer that makes up proteins?
A protein is a natural polymer made up of amino acid monomers joined together by peptide bonds. A peptide bond is a covalent bond formed by a carbon molecule and a nitrogen molecule.
How are monomers and polymers diffrent?
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 )
What is the monomer of the polymer starch?
If starch is the polymer, then the monomer is glucose, which is a monosaccharide. Starch is a polysaccharide that is made up of glucose molecules.
What smaller pieces make up a polymer?
Monomer
List these things from smallest to largest monomer organism proton atom nucleus cell tissue polymer?
a protein is made up of monoers called
What monomers make up glycogen?
Glycogen is made up of glucose monomers. These monomers are combine in alpha-1,4 linkages with alpha 1,6 linkages used to create branches. Glycogen also has a small protein component that is used to initiate the glycogen polymer called glyocgenin.
What are the 4 major macromolecules and monomers?
The 4 macomolecules are carbohydrates, lipids,proteins, and nucleic acids. Their monomers are: Carbohydrates- Simple sugar Lipids-Fatty Acid Protein-Amino Acids Nucleic Acid-Nucleotide
What is proteins polymer?
The protein polymer is the sequence of nucleotide base pair and the building blocks or we can call it as monomers of proteins which are nitrogen base and many of them together in different series and sequence form a protein which is metabolically very important to humane.
What is Something that is made up of repeating monomer units?
A polymer - specifically a homopolymer
