Question
multiple choice question which of the following is considered a monomer (a single unit) of a capsid? amino acid phospholipid capsomere capsidomere
Brief Explanations
Capsids are protein - based structures of viruses. Capsomeres are the individual protein subunits (monomers) that make up a capsid. Capsidome is not a standard term for a capsid monomer. Phospholipids are components of cell membranes, not capsid monomers. Amino acids are the monomers of proteins in general, but the specific monomer of a capsid is called a capsomere.
