DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)
trait
The molecule you are referring to is called DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). It consists of a sugar-phosphate backbone and nitrogen bases (adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine) that encode genetic information.
The backbone of the DNA molecule consists of a sugar, deoxyribose and a phosphate group. --(sugars and phosphates)
Deoxyribose sugars and phosphates make up the backbone of DNA.
The backbone of the DNA molecule is made up of alternating sugar (deoxyribose) and phosphate groups. These sugar-phosphate backbones run along the outside of the double helix structure, providing stability to the DNA molecule.
The two sides of DNA latter are made up of molecules of a sugar called deoxyribose alternating with molecules known as phosphates PHOSPHATES AND SUGAR
Phosphates and sugars.
Yes, deoxyribose is present in DNA. It is a sugar molecule that forms the backbone of the DNA structure. Deoxyribose helps to stabilize the DNA molecule and provides a framework for the attachment of the nitrogenous bases, which are essential for encoding genetic information.
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)
A phosphodiester bond connects sugars (deoxyribose or ribose) and phosphates in nucleic acids like DNA and RNA. It forms between the 3' carbon of one sugar molecule and the 5' carbon of the adjacent sugar molecule, creating a sugar-phosphate backbone.
The DNA backbone is also called the sugar-phosphate backbone - the deoxyribose sugars (with, among other elements, 5 carbon atoms) and phosphates (PO4--) conjoin together in a [very strong due to the electronegativity of the Oxygens] chain.Sugars and PhosphatesA sugar (deoxyribose, a sugar with, among other elements, 5 carbon atoms) and phosphates to bond them together.
Sugar (in the form of deoxyribose in DNA) provides the backbone structure for the DNA molecule, while phosphates help link the deoxyribose sugar molecules together. The energy for DNA replication comes from the breaking of high-energy phosphate bonds in the nucleotide triphosphates that are used to build new DNA strands.
