What else can I help you with?
What are the four nucleic acid base compounds?
Adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine
Is adenine a nucleic acid?
No, adenine is a component of nucleic acids, but isn't a nucleic acid itself.
What does thymine mean?
Thymine is a nucleobases that makes up the nucleic acid of DNA. There are three other nucleobases in nucleic acid.
A research student is analyzing the nucleic acid of a virus He finds that the nucleic acid contains thymine From this it can be concluded that the nucleic acid?
is likely DNA. Thymine is a nitrogenous base found in DNA, not RNA. RNA contains uracil instead of thymine.
What are the five monomers units of a na?
The five monomer units, or nucleotides, of nucleic acid are Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine, Thymine and Uracil.
Which nucleic acid polymer of bases includes cytosine thymine and uracil?
Rna - ribonucleic acid.
What nuleic acid base compound only pairs with thymine?
Adenine-Thymine Guanine-Cytosine
What is the function of thymine?
One of four nucleobases in the nucleic acid of DNA, thymine is also known as 5-methyluracil. Thymine creates thymidine when combined with deoxyribose.
What is a in DNA?
deoxyribose nucleic ACID or do you mean like guanine cytosine thymine ADENINE?
What is built from nucleotides?
Nucleic acids are made from nucleotides. The nucleotides are adenine, guanine, thymine, and cytosine. They make up DNA, which is a nucleic acid.
What is the smallest subunit of nucleic acid chains?
The smallest subunit of nucleic acid chains is a nucleotide, which consists of a sugar molecule (ribose or deoxyribose), a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base (adenine, cytosine, guanine, or thymine/uracil).
Is it true or false that adenine always pairs with guanine?
False. In DNA and RNA, adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T) in DNA and with uracil (U) in RNA, while guanine (G) pairs with cytosine (C). Adenine and guanine are both purines, but they do not pair with each other during nucleic acid formation.
