Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Each different type of macromolecule, except lipids, is built from a different set of monomers that resemble each other in composition and size. Lipids are not polymers, because they are not built from monomers (units with similar composition).
Detailed explanation-2: -Other carbohydrates, such as cellulose-a component of plant cell walls-serve primarily structural roles in a cell. Lipids are the only macromolecules that are not polymers.
