What part of DNA gives the molecule a negative charge?

The phosphate groups in the DNA molecule give it a negative charge.


Where are phosphate groups in a DNA molecule?

The DNA backbone, are made of alternating sugars and phosphate groups.


What part of the DNA molecule is most exposed to the watery environment in the cell?

The phosphate backbone of the DNA molecule is most exposed to the watery environment in the cell. The phosphate groups are hydrophilic and interact with water molecules, making them the most accessible part of the DNA molecule in the cellular environment.


Why is DNA negatively charged?

DNA is negatively charged because it contains phosphate groups in its structure, which have a negative charge. These phosphate groups are part of the backbone of the DNA molecule, contributing to its overall negative charge.


Is there phosphate groups found in DNA?

The DNA backbone, are made of alternating sugars and phosphate groups.


Are the phosphate groups on the interior or exterior of the DNA molecule?

On the exterior linking the sugar backbones together.


What is phosphate groups?

A phosphate group is a part of a molecule (i.e. group) with the formula PO4. Depending on the molecule it is part of it can be either inorganic phosphate or organic phosphate. Phosphate groups are essential to many biochemical processes (e.g. ATP for energy storage, phosphorylation of DNA to inhibit/enable gene expression).


What part of DNA is found at the centre of the molecule?

phosphate molecule


Number of phosphates in DNA molecule with five base pairs?

A DNA molecule with five base pairs would have 5 phosphate groups in its backbone. Each nucleotide in the DNA molecule contains one phosphate group, so a DNA molecule with five base pairs would have a total of 5 phosphate groups in its structure.


Which part of a deoxynucleoside triphosphate molecule provides the energy for DNA synthesis?

The triphosphate group of the deoxynucleoside triphosphate molecule provides the energy required for DNA synthesis. When one of the phosphate groups is cleaved, it releases the energy necessary for the formation of phosphodiester bonds between nucleotides during DNA replication.


Where is the deoxyribose located in DNA?

The deoxyribose is located in the backbone of the DNA molecule, forming the sugar-phosphate backbone along with the phosphate groups.


What parts of the nucleotide make up the backbone of the DNA molecule?

Pentose sugars and Phosphate groups
