Understand that DNA is a type of nucleic acid, which is a macromolecule essential for all known forms of life.
Recognize that macromolecules are made up of smaller units called monomers.
Identify the monomers of nucleic acids, such as DNA, which are called nucleotides.
Recall that each nucleotide consists of three components: a phosphate group, a sugar molecule (deoxyribose in DNA), and a nitrogenous base (adenine, thymine, cytosine, or guanine).
Differentiate nucleotides from other biological monomers such as amino acids (proteins), monosaccharides (carbohydrates), and fatty acids (lipids), which are not the building blocks of DNA.
