No.
Amino acid monomers are used to make protein polymers.
Nucleotide monomers are used to make DNA polymers.
A polymer (a chemical term) is any material that is made up of repeating linked units (monomers). An example of a polymer is starch. It is made from linked units of Glucose (a sugar). Another example is plastics such as low density polyethylene made from linking repeating ethylene (a gas) units. Maybe a more familar example that is used around the house is when you repair your car with fiberglass. The liquid that is used to bond the fiberglass to the car and itself is styene monomer. When the catalyst is added to the styrene monomomer you are starting a chemical reaction that joins the monomers into very long polymers that cross link and form a hard polymer.
DNA is made of small units called nucleotides. One nucleotide generally contains a phosphate group, a sugar (Deoxyribose), and nitrogen bases (Purines:Adenine, Guanine; and Pyrimidines: Cytosine, and Thymine)
Biochemists would call the result of chaining many molecules together a polymer. Polymers are large molecules made up of repeating units called monomers. The process of linking monomers together is known as polymerization.
Monomers are single units while polymers are monomers linked together. So with polysaccharides being polymers or monomers linked together, then think of a single monomer of sugar such as maltose.
There are almost limitless numbers of monomers in use for polymer manufacture. If you look at the names of polymer types you will see that monomers must come from very many basic chemical families - polyesters are made from diacids and diols, polyolefines are made from alkenes, nylons are made from diacids and diamines, polyvinyls are made from substituted ethylenes, polyacrylics are made from substituted and pure acrylic acid (propenoic acid) etc. etc etc. Many polymers use mixed types of monomer. ethene is the answer dont read this wrong and long thing this person above wrote.
A molecule made of many repeating parts is known as a polymer.
When many monomers are linked together, they form a polymer. Polymers are large molecules made up of repeating units called monomers, which are attached together through chemical bonds. This process is known as polymerization.
The freezing of ice.
Monomers are the starting units for making Polymers. For eg: Polyethylene is synthesized by addition polymerisation technique to form Polyethylene. Many monomers join together to form a large macromolecule called as polymer.
Definitely a polymer. Protein is made of many monomers of amino acids.
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 )

A monomer is a single unit that can join together with other monomers to form a polymer. Think of a monomer as the "one" building block, and a polymer as the "many" units created by linking multiple monomers together through chemical bonds.

polymer.
These are polymers, which are made by linking monomers together through chemical bonds. This joining process is called polymerization, and it can result in a wide variety of complex and diverse molecules with unique properties and functions.
