Question

A polymer is comprised of repeating monomers that are connected to each other through dehydration synthesis reactions. What are the monomers of DNA (a polymer)?

Answer 1

The monomers of DNA are nucleic acids - the four in DNA are adenine, guanine, thymine, and cytosine - the A, C, G, and T of primary DNA structure. 

(You'll learn later that RNA swaps out thymine for uracil - U)

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer will be-nucleotide

Explanation:

DNA or Deoxyribose nucleic acid is the genetic material of the organism which contains the code for the synthesis of bio-molecules.

The biochemistry of DNA shows that the molecule is a polymer made of repeating nucleotide units. Each nucleotide is composed of a five-carbon deoxyribose sugar, a phosphate group and nitrogenous bases. These nucleotides are bonded to each other via a phospho-diester bond.

Thus, a nucleotide is the correct answer.
