B) secondary structure
C) tertiary structure
D) quaternary structure
When polymers are broken down into monomers, what are those monomers then used for?
List the 3 types of of macromolecules that form polymers, and next to each one list the monomers that make up each type. For the 4th type of macromolecule, explain in one sentence why its components would not really be considered monomers.
