there are so many different people saying different things!!!!!!!!! Help Please!!!!!!!!!
-
Lipids: have no polymers. Consisted of monomers such as glycerol and fatty acid chains (that can be saturated, or unsaturated, or saturated trans)
Proteins: monomers include an Amine group (NH2) + Carboxylic acid group (COOH) **hence the "AMINo ACID"** + Hydrogen (H) + a varying "R" group (which can be polar or non polar). Polymers include polypeptide chains (which possess many amino acids linked by "peptide" bonds). These chains will further continue to fold to their native shape in steps....
Carbohydrates: monomers are monosaccharides (glucose, fructose, galactose). Disaccharides are lactose (glucose + galactose) sucrose (glucose + fructose) , etc. Polysaccharides (polymers) include starch, glycogen, cellulose, and chitin.
