Can't edit variables of a custom class in inspector?

Hi everyone

I just started making a simple quiz game and have been setting up a system to create buttons based on an array of an “Answer” class I’ve made.

Unfortunately, for some reason I can’t edit the variables of the Answer class in the inspector and I have no idea why. I’m sure I’ve missed something silly but below is the code I’ve done so far:

Answer Class:

using UnityEngine;
using System;


[Serializable]


public class Answer : MonoBehaviour
{
    public string answerText;
    public bool isCorrect;
}

The game’s manager:

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;


public class QuizController : MonoBehaviour
{
	public GameObject canvas;
	public GameObject button;

	public Answer[] answerArray;

	private void Start()
	{
		foreach(Answer a in answerArray)
		{
			CreateButton(a);
		}
	}
	public void CreateButton(Answer answer)
	{
		GameObject newButton = Instantiate(button) as GameObject;
		newButton.transform.SetParent(canvas.transform, false);
		newButton.GetComponentInChildren<Text>().text = answer.answerText;
	}
}

What is looks like in the inspector:

Thanks in advance for your help

Ok turns out It’s because the class derived from MonoBehaviour - deleting that made it work.
