DNA is made of two strands that are wrapped around each other like a ladder. The nucleotides in the DNA include a nitrogenous base, a carbon-based sugar molecule called deoxyribose, and a phosphate group attached to the sugar molecule.

∙ 15y agoEach nucleotide has three components:
* a nitrogenous base: either a purine (adenine or guanine) or a pyrimidine (cytosine or thymine) * a sugar: the pentose, deoxyribose * a phosphate group The sugar is in the middle of the three. Its 1' carbon is attached to the base, and its 5' carbon to the phosphate.

The two common parts of nucleotides?
phrosphate and deoxyribose
What is the name of the nucleotides have no DNA and no RNA?
Nucleotides do not have DNA or RNA. DNA and RNA are composed of nucleotides.
What can be found on the side parts of the ladder-like DNA molecule?
The Nucleotides form the ladder rungs.
Is thymine not in nucleotide of DNA?
Adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine are all nucleotides found in DNA
The DNA of all living organisms is composed of the same nucleotides It is only the sequence of nucleotides and quantity of DNA an organism possesses that cause the differences between organisms?
True
Do all the nucleotides in human DNA belong to genes?
No - genes are the parts of DNA that code for a functional product (such as a protein). There are other parts of the DNA which are not genes.
The two common parts of nucleotides?
phrosphate and deoxyribose
What is the name of the nucleotides have no DNA and no RNA?
Nucleotides do not have DNA or RNA. DNA and RNA are composed of nucleotides.
What are the four parts of DNA?
NUCLEOTIDES, look up bases for more specific answers
Molecules of DNA are composed of a long chain are called?
A DNA molecule is composed of long chains of DNA nucleotides.
What can be found on the side parts of the ladder-like DNA molecule?
The Nucleotides form the ladder rungs.
What is the role of DNA and RNA as it relates to Nucleotides?
DNA and RNA are composed of nucleotides.
Could DNA extracted from onion be different from DNA extracted from cauliflower why?
Although DNA is composed of the same four nucleotides in all organisms, the sequence of nucleotides is different for each species
Molecule found in all DNA and RNA nucleotides?
100000000000
What is a molecule found in all DNA and RNA nucleotides?
phosphate
Is the base different from all four DNA nucleotides?
Yes
What is the function of DNA polymerase?
DNA polymerases are the enzymes responsible for joining DNA nucleotides together. In Prokaryotes - DNA Pol III is the enzyme which adds nucleotides to the new strand during DNA replication. DNA Pol I is responsible for replacing the primers with DNA nucleotides.
