Monomers are molecules of simple structure that compose the polymers. Option C. fatty acids and glycerol.

What are monomers?

Monomers are the basic unit of polymers. When many monomers join through chemical bonds they form a polymer.

There are many types of monomeric molecules. To name a few, we can mention

    Monomer                                 Polymer            

• Monosaccharide       ⇒        Carbohydrates

• Fatty acid                   ⇒        Lipids

• Amino acid                ⇒         Proteins

• Nucleotide                 ⇒         Nucleic acids

Monomers are organic molecules of reduced molecular mass and  relatively simple, defined structure.  

Monomers are composed of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms, which establish covalent bonds.

In the case of lipids, fatty acids and glycerol are the composing monomers.

Lipids have a hydrophilic head composed of glycerol and hydrophobic tails composed of fatty acid chains.

The correct option is C. The lipids monomers are fatty acids and glycerol.
