25. A Quick Aside (but an important one) What is a monomer?

26. A Quick Aside (but an important one) What is a monomer? A monomer is an individual unit that acts as a building block for large biological molecules Monomers are nearly identical units

27. A Quick Aside (but an important one) What is a monomer? A monomer is an individual unit that acts as a building block for large biological molecules Monomers are nearly identical What is a polymer?

28. A Quick Aside (but an important one) What is a monomer? A monomer is an individual unit that acts as a building block for large biological molecules Monomers are nearly identical units What is a polymer? A polymer is large molecule made up many small monomers. Think of a chain.

29. Polymers are linked by Covalent Bonds

31. So What?

33. DNA/RNA are Polymers of Nucleotides +=

34. A DNA Strand!

35. Two DNA Strands! The sequence of nitrogenous bases is the code of DNA
