What is the subnit structure of nucleic acid?
The subunit structure of a nucleic acid is nucleotides. Nucleotides are made out of a sugars, nitrogen base and a phosphate.
Is a molecular group consisting of sugar molecule a phoosphate group and a nitrogenous base a nucleic acid?
No, a molecular group consisting of a sugar molecule, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base is not a nucleic acid. Nucleic acids are polymers made up of nucleotide monomers, which contain a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. The arrangement of these nucleotide monomers forms DNA or RNA, the two types of nucleic acids.
Is a sugar a nucleic acid?
No, although there is a sugar (pentose) in nucleic acids.
Are nucleic acids and nucleotides the same thing?
No, nucleic acids are biopolymers made up of nucleotides linked together in a chain. Nucleotides are the building blocks of nucleic acids, consisting of a phosphate group, a sugar molecule, and a nitrogenous base.
Does Nucleic acids consist of DNA and RNA?
DNA and RNA are nucleic acids consisting of nucleotides.
Is Sugar is a component of nucleic acids?
No, sugar is not a direct component of nucleic acids. Nucleic acids, which include DNA and RNA, are made up of nucleotides, which consist of a sugar molecule (deoxyribose in DNA and ribose in RNA), a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. Sugar is only a part of the nucleotide structure, not the nucleic acid itself.
Is sugar a component of Nucleic acid?
no .
Is a nucleic acid a monomer or a polymer?
Nucleic acids are polymers made up of monomeric units called nucleotides. Each nucleotide consists of a phosphate group, a sugar molecule, and a nitrogenous base. Multiple nucleotides linked together form a nucleic acid chain, which can be either DNA or RNA.
What macromolecules are made of nucleotides?
RNA and DNA.
Does nucleic acid contain lactose and potassium?
no. nucleic acids have a ribose as its sugar. A ribose is a five carbon sugar. Lactose is a 6 carbon sugar and from this, we can say that it is not a ribose. Nucleic acids contain phosphorus but not potassium.
Subunit of DNA consisting of a nitrogeneous base a sugar and a phosphate group?
A nucleotide is the subunit of DNA that consists of a nitrogenous base (adenine, cytosine, guanine, thymine), a sugar (deoxyribose), and a phosphate group. These nucleotides are the building blocks of DNA molecules.
What are molecules consisting of sub units called nucleotides called?
Nucleic Acids ( I think)
