∙ 12y agoLipids are not polymers but are macromolecules. So we cannot speak of monomers and polymers of lipids.
Lipids are triglycerides, the simplest form being formed by a condensation reaction between a molecule of glycerol (which has 3 -OH groups) and 3 fatty acids.

Which of the major types of biological molecules does NOT consist of monomers and polymers?
The major type of biological molecules that does not consist of monomers and polymers are Lipids. Although triglycerides are created by the combination of similar molecules, others, steroids, are not.
What is the term for the building block of polymers?
Monomers

when monomers are joined together what do they form?
Monomers joined together make a polymer.
When monomers combine they form what?
Monomers hook up to form polymers. There is a link below that will lead you to the Wikipedia post on polymers.Water is also produced, this is a condensation reaction.
What are the polymers of lipids?
The polymers of lipids are simply its monomers (fatty acids and glycerol) connected
Are fats polymers or monomers?
Polymers, they are lipids which are long carbon chains
What nmacromolecule is not organized in repeating units of monomers?
That are the lipids. They have fatty acids and glucerols
What are the names of monomers and polymers of lipids?
the scientific name is hypobinkofel but in our terminology it is thisisfakeidiot cheers ;)
