a monomer of DNA or RNA is called a nucleotide.the nucleotide is actually a combination of (1)a deoxyribose/ribose sugar (2)a base(A,G,C,T/U) (3)phosphoric acid.All these combine and form a nucleotide.a large number of these nucleotides join together through phosphodiester linkage to form a polymer of DNA/RNA..........

What macromolecules are made of nucleotides?
RNA and DNA.
Is DNA longer or shorter than rna?
Since both proteins and DNA are polymers (molecules arranged like chains made up of smaller molecules called monomers), their sizes cannot be compared. However, the monomer of DNA (called a nucleic acid) is smaller than the monomer of a protein (called an amino acid)
Subunits that make up polymers?
It's the monomer, the unit that repeats itself along the polymer.
What enzyme transcribes DNA?
The enzyme that transcribes the DNA into RNA is called RNA polymerase.
A major difference in RNA as compared to DNA is?
RNA can move and DNA cant. DNA has a double helix strand and RNA is a single strand.
What is the basic monomer subunit in DNA and RNA?
nucleotides
What is a nucleotide polymer?
Both DNA and RNA are polymers of Nucleic Acids
What monomer are DNA and RNA made up of?
adenine , thymine , guanine , cytosine
Which monomer is not found in RNA?
An RNA monomer is a nucleotide.
What macromolecules are made of nucleotides?
RNA and DNA.
Is DNA longer or shorter than rna?
Since both proteins and DNA are polymers (molecules arranged like chains made up of smaller molecules called monomers), their sizes cannot be compared. However, the monomer of DNA (called a nucleic acid) is smaller than the monomer of a protein (called an amino acid)
Nucleotides are the basic unit of which macromolecules?
Nucleic acids (DNA and RNA)
The monomer of RNA?
nucleotide
The Monomer of RNA is?
Hydrolysis !!
What is the monomer of RNA?
HYDROLYSIS
What are polymers for rna?
RNA is a polymer that is made up of a sugar called ribose. Ribose is a simple sugar known as pentose monosaccharide.
The monomer units of DNA and RNA?
Nucleotides. A single nucleotide contains a phosphate group, deoxyribose or ribose (depending on the nucleic acid) and a nitrogen base, which can be adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine, and uracil. These monomers combine to form polymers known as DNA or RNA.
