What Are The Building Blocks Monomers Of Nucleic Acids. The nucleotides combine with each other to form a polynucleotide. Asked Jan 31 in Biology Microbiology by aliciaft. Nucleotides are the monomers that make up the nucleic acid polymers. A 5-carbon sugar a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base.
A common example of this is ATP which stores energy. A phosphate a sugar and a nitrogenous base. Nucleic acids are made up of monomers called nucleotides. ATP is a direct and rapid energy source for most cellular activities. Nucleic acids are biopolymers or small biomolecules essential to all known forms of life. The nucleotides combine with each other to form a polynucleotide.
Note the prefix mono which indicates one as in monorail monotheism monosyllabic etc To get a sense of how monomers are used lets think about Legos.
ATP is a direct and rapid energy source for most cellular activities. Three parts of a nucleotide a building block of nucleic acids DNA and RNA DNA and RNA are polymers. The two Nucleic acids present in cell are. A common example of this is ATP which stores energy. Asked Jan 31 in Biology Microbiology by aliciaft. Nucleotides are the building blocks of nucleic acids - DNA and RNA.
