Question

Match the following biomolecules with their simple units.

• A. Nucleotides
• B. Monosaccharides
• C. Amino acids
• D. Triglycerides

Answer 1

The organic composition of a living cell is made of different components like proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and nucleic acids. The makeup of each organelle is not particularly with one type of compound, but major and minor mixtures of different biomolecules and some of their basic units are:

i). The monomeric unit of a protein is $\Rightarrow$(d.) Amino acid.

ii). The simplest form of a carbohydrate is $\Rightarrow$(a.) Monosaccharide.

iii). The simplest form of lipid is $\Rightarrow$(b.) Triglyceride.

iv). The monomeric unit of nucleic acid is $\Rightarrow$(c.) Nucleotide.
