Are proteins polymers 20 different nucleotides?
No, proteins are polymers of amino acids. DNA and RNA are polymers of nucleotides.
Does a nucleotide use a protein?
No nucleotides are not proteins. Nucleotides are composed of nucleosides that are linked to phosphate groups and are the subunits of DNA and RNA.
What foods do not contain macromolecules?
of the choices: proteins starches nucleotides lipids nucleotides are not macromolecules
Name the polymer of carbohydrates proteins lipids and nucleic acid?
Carbohydrates: starch Lipids: Glycerol Proteins: polypeptides nucleic acid: nucleotides
What build proteins?
Ribosomes build up proteins. They provide surface for that

What monomers stored the code for proteins?
Nucleotides
What is a riboprotein?
riboNucleoproteins are protein+RNA. The Ribo means it is RNA and not DNA (deoxyribo) nucleotides. Nucleotides (RNA or DNA) can hold onto proteins and subsequently react with substrates or attach to other macromolecules such as proteins. Some proteins will not work without nucleotides attached. Ribosomal proteins, on the other hand, are proteins that work with ribosomes. There are about 79 proteins that interact with ribosomes.

What is the number of nucleotides found in a protein?
None! The reason is: there are no nucleotides in proteins. Nucleotides are the monomers (building blocks) of nucleic acids. The monomers of proteins are amino acids. The relationship between nucleotides and amino acids is the genetic code. In brief, the genetic code works like this: within a region of DNA that codes for a polypeptide chain (from which a protein will be made) a group of three adjacent nucleotides code for one amino acid.
