Do guanine always pair with adenine?
They pair by hydrogen bonds holding them together. Covalent bonds hold the nucleotides together, creating a sugar-phosphate backbone.
What are individual subunits of macromolecules called?
Monosaccharides, triglyceride, amino acids, and nucleotides
What is the name of the linkage in nucleotides reaction?
Nucleotides are joined together with phosphodiester bonds.
What is the monomer for the DNA polymer called?
nucleotides
Do the rna nucleotides pair exactly as they were DNA replication?
no uracil is used instead of thymine
What are the nucleotides called that pair with thymine in DNA?
Adenine always pairs with thymine in DNA.
Do guanine always pair with adenine?
They pair by hydrogen bonds holding them together. Covalent bonds hold the nucleotides together, creating a sugar-phosphate backbone.
How many nucleotides that can pair up with adenine?
2
DNA is made of repeating units or monomers called?
nucleotides- guanine, adenine, thymine, and cytosine
What are individual subunits of macromolecules called?
Monosaccharides, triglyceride, amino acids, and nucleotides
What is the name of the linkage in nucleotides reaction?
Nucleotides are joined together with phosphodiester bonds.
What is the monomer for the DNA polymer called?
nucleotides
The replicas of chromosomes that form during prophase are called what?
During prophase, a chromosome is composed of tightly coiled DNA and protein molecules. Each chromosome exists as a pair of identical sister chromatids which are held together at the centromere.
Why are guanine and cytosine and they and adenine useful in the DNA molecules?
Guanine is a purine and Cytosine is a pyrimidine. They are nucleotides that pair together. The two are useful in DNA molecules because they pair together, along with Adenine and Thymine, which build a double helix. Guanine, Adenine, Thymine, and Cytosine are all nitrogenous bases.
Nucleic acid are composed of units called?
nucleotides.
What enzyme connects nucleotides together during DNA replication?
The Ligase connects nucleotides together during DNA replication.
What pair forms a rung in the DNA ladder?
The base of the nucleotides
