Question

Nucleic acids have what monomer?

Answer 1

Nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA, are polymers made up of monomers called nucleotides. Each nucleotide consists of three components: a phosphate group, a five-carbon sugar (deoxyribose in DNA and ribose in RNA), and a nitrogenous base (which can be adenine, thymine, cytosine, guanine in DNA, and uracil in RNA).
