Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following is a polymer made up of nucleotides?
A
DNA, RNA
B
Starch, Glycogen
C
Enzymes, Antibodies
D
Triglycerides, Steroids
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -DNA and RNA molecules are polymers made up of long chains of nucleotides.

Detailed explanation-2: -The polymer of nucleotides is called RNA (Ribonucleic acid) and DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid). Both nucleic acids RNA and DNA consist of Polymer of nucleotides.

Detailed explanation-3: -DNA consists of two long polymers (called strands) that run in opposite directions and form the regular geometry of the double helix. The monomers of DNA are called nucleotides. Nucleotides have three components: a base, a sugar (deoxyribose) and a phosphate residue.

Detailed explanation-4: -RNA is a linear polymer of nucleotides linked by a ribose-phosphate backbone. Polymerization of nucleotides occurs in a condensation reaction in which phosphodiester bonds are formed.

Detailed explanation-5: -Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) are polymers composed of monomers called nucleotides. An RNA nucleotide consists of a five-carbon sugar phosphate linked to one of four nucleic acid bases: guanine (G), cytosine (C), adenine (A) and uracil (U).
