This question is asking for the polymer and monomer of nucleotide and protein respectively.

The answer is:

Protein - monomer is AMINO ACID

Nucleotide - polymer is NUCLEIC ACID

Explanation:

There are four major biological molecules found in nature namely: protein, carbohydrates, fats and oil, nucleic acid. These biological molecules are, however, complex and polymeric in nature and like every other polymer, they must contain monomers that make up their structure.

- PROTEINS are made up of monomers called AMINO ACIDS.

- CARBOHYDRATES are made up of monomers called MONOSACCHARIDES.

- LIPIDS are made up of monomers called FATTY ACIDS.

- NUCLEIC ACIDS are made up of monomers called NUCLEOTIDES.
