Glucose is to starch as: A. a steroid is to a lipid b. a nucleotide is to a nucleic acid c. an amino acid is to a protein d. a polypeptide is to an amino acid. Okay so I know the answer isn't a or d, but aren't both b and c monomers to a polymer like the question. I am confused on which one to choose.

OpenStudy (shadeyghost):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I guess I'l go with c

OpenStudy (eric_d):

To me, C wld be the best choice !

OpenStudy (eric_d):

since amino acids are put together into a polypeptide chain on the ribosome during protein synthesis
