amino acids
monosaccharides
nucleotides
a glycerol and a fatty acid chain

Explanation:

Identify the target macromolecule and its monomer

The question asks for the monomer of nucleic acids, which are biological macromolecules.

Evaluate the given options

• Amino acids are the monomers that link together to form proteins.
• Monosaccharides are the monomer units of carbohydrates.
• Nucleotides are the building blocks that polymerize to form nucleic acids (DNA and RNA).
• Glycerol and fatty acids are the components that make up lipids (triglycerides).

Select the correct option

Nucleotides are the correct monomers of nucleic acids.

Answer:

• amino acids
• monosaccharides
• nucleotides (Correct answer)
• a glycerol and a fatty acid chain
