HUMAN NUTRITION

Detailed explanation-1: -The building blocks that make up polymers are called monomers (MAH-nuh-murs). Thousands or even tens of thousands of monomers connect to form a polymer. In some polymers, all the monomers look the same. Other polymers combine several types of monomers.

Detailed explanation-2: -Monomers are atoms or small molecules that bond together to form more complex structures such as polymers. There are four main types of monomer, including sugars, amino acids, fatty acids, and nucleotides.

Detailed explanation-3: -Monomers are the building blocks of the four basic macromolecules of life-monosaccharides are the monomers of carbohydrates, amino acids are the monomers of proteins, glycerol/fatty acids are the monomers of lipids, and nucleotides are the monomers of DNA.
