A pentose sugar and a phosphate group with one of nitrogenous base[a Adenine,a thymine,a uracil,a guanine,a cytocine] forms a nucleotide
DNA: adenine-thymine, guanine-cytosine RNA: adenine-uracil, guanine-cytosine
An RNA nucleotide is the building block of RNA, consisting of a nitrogenous base (adenine, guanine, cytosine, or uracil), a ribose sugar, and a phosphate group. These nucleotides are linked together to form RNA strands during transcription.
The monomers are called nucleotides.For DNA the nucleotides are Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine.For RNA the nucleotides are Adenine, Uracil, Cytosine, and Guanine.There are 3 parts to nucleotides. They are a nitrogenous base, a pentose sugar, and a phosphate group.
Adenine, Uracil & Guanine
Nucleotides contain a 5-carbon sugar, phosphate, and one of four nitrogen bases; adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil in place of thymine in RNA.
The monomers of nucleic acids are nucleotides. DNA nucleotides are composed of the sugar deoxyribose, a phosphate group, and one of four nitrogen bases: adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine. RNA nucleotides are composed of the sugar ribose, a phosphate group, and one of four nitrogen bases: adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil.
RNA nucleotides contain the sugar ribose, a phosphate group, and one of four nitrogen bases: adenine, guanine, cytosine, or uracil.
The phosphate base that pairs with Adenine in RNA is Uracil. In a DNA strand Adenine would pair with Thymine.
DNA nucleotides: adenine nucleotide, guanine nucleotide, cytosine nucleotide, thymine nucleotideRNA nucleotides: adenine nucleotide, guanine nucleotide, cytosine nucleotide, uracil nucleotideBase-pairing in DNA: adenine and thymine, guanine and cytosineBase-pairing in RNA: adenine and uracil, guanine and cytosine
In RNA, thymine (T) is replaced by uracil (U). This means that RNA contains adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and uracil (U) nucleotides, while DNA contains adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T) nucleotides.
Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Uricil RNA uses three of the same nucleotides that DNA uses:two purines, called adenine (A) and guanine (G), and the pyrimidine cytosine(C).However RNA uses Uracil where DNA uses Thymine.Thus the four RNA nucleotides are Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Uracil
The monomer of nucleic acids is nucleotides. Nucleotides consist of a phosphate group, a sugar molecule (ribose or deoxyribose), and a nitrogenous base (adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine, or uracil).
