Question

1. if a strand of beads represents a starch molecule, what would the individual beads represent? (1 point)

○ fatty acids
○ monosaccharides
○ amino acids
○ disaccharides

Explanation:

Starch is a polysaccharide, and polysaccharides are made of monosaccharide monomers. Fatty acids are for lipids, amino acids for proteins, disaccharides are two - sugar units (not the monomer of starch). So individual beads (monomers of starch) are monosaccharides.

Answer:

B. monosaccharides
