Question
**Glucose is to a polysaccharide as...**

- O shoes are to feet
- O fruits are to vegetables
- O numbers are to math
- O letters are to a word

This question is designed to test the understanding of the relationship between a monomer (glucose) and its polymer (polysaccharide). The correct analogy in this context would be "letters are to a word," indicating the relationship between individual units and the larger complex they form. Glucose is a monomer that links together to form polysaccharides, just as letters combine to form words.
