검증된 단계별 안내1
Understand the relationship between glucose and starch: Glucose is a monosaccharide, which is a simple sugar, and starch is a polysaccharide, which is a complex carbohydrate made up of many glucose units linked together.
Identify the type of relationship: The relationship between glucose and starch is that of a monomer to a polymer. A monomer is a single unit that can join with other similar units to form a polymer.
Analyze the options given: Each option presents a pair of biological molecules. Determine which pair has a similar monomer-polymer relationship.
Evaluate the correct option: A nucleotide is to a nucleic acid. A nucleotide is the monomer unit that makes up nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA, which are polymers.
Conclude the analogy: Just as glucose is the building block of starch, a nucleotide is the building block of nucleic acids. This confirms the correct analogy.
