Question

The smallest subunit of a macromolecule is _____ glucose is an example. Whereas a _____ is formed when several of these smallest subunits are joined together in a complex molecule such as a starch.
I’ve already tried monosaccharide and Amino acids for the first answer and polysaccharide for the second answer but it keeps saying I’m wrong idk what else it could be wanting me to answer with The smallest subunit of a macromolecule is _____ glucose is an example.

Explanation / Answer

Monomers – It is a single sugar unit and it can be used for formation of polymers of many molecules with help of glycosidic bonds. The glucose is monomer unit. The glucose serves as building block of many molecules.

Polymers- The polymers are long molecules of monomers that are connected by glycosidic bond or identical monomers to form larger molecules known as polysaccharide
