Amino acids are natural monomers that polymerize at ribosomes to form proteins. Nucleotides, monomers found in the cell nucleus, polymerize to form nucleic acids â DNA and RNA.Glucose monomers can polymerize to form starches, glycogen or cellulose; xylose monomers can polymerise to form xylan.ucleotides, monomers found in the cell nucleus, polymerize to form nucleic acids â DNA and RNA.
