select all of the following molecules that are polymers.

a. cellulose
b. rna
c. polypeptide
d. amino acid
e. atp
f. triglyceride
g. dna
h. dissacharide

1 answer

The molecules that are polymers among the options provided are:

a. cellulose - a polysaccharide made of glucose units, making it a polymer.

b. RNA - a polymer made of nucleotides.

c. polypeptide - a polymer made of amino acids linked by peptide bonds.

g. DNA - a polymer made of nucleotides.

The other options are not polymers:

d. amino acid - a monomer unit, the building block of proteins, but not a polymer by itself.

e. ATP - an individual nucleotide; it is not a polymer.

f. triglyceride - a lipid made of glycerol and fatty acids; it is not a polymer.

h. disaccharide - a carbohydrate made up of two monosaccharide units; it is not a polymer.

So the correct polymers are: a, b, c, and g.
