no. in reality there are actually two sugars.
In DNA, sugars refer to the deoxyribose molecules that make up the backbone of the DNA double helix. These sugars are linked together by phosphate groups, forming the sugar-phosphate backbone of the DNA molecule.
Phosphates and sugars.
DNA contains deoxyribose sugar and it helps in transferring genes .
Ribose
Phosphates and Sugars formthe sides of the DNA ladder~
Phosphate backbone
DNA is the result of the y and x chromosome combining in the womb. DNA can be taken from anywhere to determine the 3 trillion letters that make up who you are. So unless the part of the body that the DNA sample is taken from produces sugars, then no, DNA does not contain sugar.
deoxyribose
This is false!! The correct answer is RNA
Deoxyribose, C5H10O4. The sugar in RNA, ribose, has the chemical formula C5H10O5.
The sugar in DNA is deoxyribose - hence the name deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).
The DNA backbone, are made of alternating sugars and phosphate groups.
