Question

monosaccharides are the monomers/building blocks of what type of organic compound?
a carbohydrates
b proteins
c nucleic acids
question 12
which type of organic compound acts as a fast source of energy, but can be stored in the form of starch and glycogen?
a nucleic acid
b lipid
c carbohydrate

Explanation:

For Question 11: Monosaccharides like glucose are the basic units that combine to form carbohydrates (e.g., polysaccharides). Proteins have amino acids as monomers, and nucleic acids have nucleotides.
For Question 12: Carbohydrates (e.g., glucose) are a quick - energy source. Starch (in plants) and glycogen (in animals) are storage forms of carbohydrates. Nucleic acids (DNA, RNA) are for genetic information, and lipids are for long - term energy storage and other functions.

Answer:

Question 11: A. carbohydrates
Question 12: C. carbohydrate
