Question

part a
a glucose molecule is to starch as
view available hint(s)
a protein is to an amino acid
a nucleotide is to a nucleic acid
a steroid is to a lipid
a nucleic acid is to a polypeptide

Explanation:

Glucose is a monomer that makes up starch (a polymer). Similarly, a nucleotide is a monomer that forms nucleic acids (polymers). A protein is made of amino - acids but the order is wrong in the first option. A steroid is a type of lipid, not a monomer - polymer relationship. Nucleic acids and polypeptides are different macromolecules with no such monomer - polymer link as described.

Answer:

B. a nucleotide is to a nucleic acid
