what is the monomer of a polysaccharide?
○ fatty acid
○ glycogen
○ monosaccharide
○ cellulose
A monomer is a single unit that can bond with other monomers to form a polymer. Polysaccharides are polymers. Monosaccharides (like glucose) are the simple sugar units that combine via glycosidic bonds to form polysaccharides (e.g., starch is made of glucose monomers). Fatty acids are monomers of lipids (not polysaccharides). Glycogen is a polysaccharide (not a monomer). Cellulose is also a polysaccharide (a structural polysaccharide in plants).
