Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -A macromolecule is a very large molecule important to biophysical processes, such as a protein or nucleic acid. It is composed of thousands of covalently bonded atoms. Many macromolecules are polymers of smaller molecules called monomers.
Detailed explanation-2: -A monomer is a small molecule that reacts with a similar molecule to form a larger molecule. It is the smallest unit in a polymer, which is often a macromolecule with high molecular weight. Monomers are the building blocks for biological macromolecules such as DNA, RNA, proteins and carbohydrates.
