monomer = amino acid
polymer = polypeptide (= polypeptide chain)
A monomer is one unit in a chain of repeating units. Amino acids are assembled in cells into chains called polypeptides.
A protein may consist of just one polypeptide, or more than one. For example, human growth hormone has only one chain, but hemoglobin has four.

Name 2 basic kinds of nucleic acids what sugar does each contain?
Two kinds of nucleic acids are:-RNA/ Ribonucleic Acid-DNA/ Deoxyribonucleic AcidAs there names, RNA contain the sugar ribose and DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose
Why might fatty acids amino acids and nucleic acids increase the hydrogen ion concentration of solution?
Fatty acids, amino acids, and nucleic acids can increase the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution because they contain ionizable groups that can release protons, leading to an increase in acidity. When these molecules dissociate in water, they can contribute to the formation of hydrogen ions, which can lower the pH of the solution.
Do the names of a binary acid begin with the prefix bi?
The names of binary acids do not begin with bi. The names of binary acids being with the "hydro" prefix, then the root of the nonmetal element, then they end with "ic".
Which organic compound contains DNA?
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is a type of organic compound that contains genetic instructions necessary for the development, functioning, growth, and reproduction of all known living organisms. DNA is composed of nucleotide building blocks that contain a sugar (deoxyribose), a phosphate group, and one of four nitrogenous bases (adenine, thymine, cytosine, or guanine).
Why do teflon and kevlar have capital letters when other polymers do not?
Teflon and Kevlar are brand names, so they are capitalized to indicate that they are specific products developed by companies (DuPont for Teflon and DuPont and others for Kevlar). Other polymers are generic terms and are not specific to a particular brand, so they are not capitalized.
What are two other names for macromolecules?
All enzymes are macromolecules called proteins.

What names are given to monomers of proteins?
The monomers of protein are amino acids. There are 20 common amino acids. Some of the most common are Alanine, Glycine and Leucine.
What are four names of macromolecules?
Macromolecules are very large molecules. The term is used for the four biopolymers nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates and lipids. It is also used to describe non-polymeric molecules - such as macrocycles.

Names of acids found in nucleus of a cell?
Osmosis.. That is wrong because osmosis is the movement of water molecules from high concentration to low concentration. The name of the acids in the nucleus of a cell is the nucleic acids.
Why might fatty acids amino acids and nucleic acids increase the hydrogen ion concentration of solution?
Fatty acids, amino acids, and nucleic acids can increase the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution because they contain ionizable groups that can release protons, leading to an increase in acidity. When these molecules dissociate in water, they can contribute to the formation of hydrogen ions, which can lower the pH of the solution.
What are organic compounds are DNA and RNA?
DNA and RNA are both nucleic acids - chains of nucleotides. This is evident from their names (deoxyribonucleic acid - DNA, and ribonucleic acid - RNA).

What are other names for Dna monomers?
For the Dna [sugar-phosphate] backbone there are two types of monomers - the ribose [5 carbon] sugar and the [PO4 minus] phosphate moiety. The Four Handshake Bases that form 'the rungs of the Dna Ladder' are the nucleotide base monomers. Their Names are the pairs Adenine with Guanine and the pairs Cytosine with Thymine.
