an exonuclease cleaves nucleotides from the end of a polynucleotide chain whereas an endonuclease cleaves nucleotides from within a polynucleotide chain
Polynucleotide is a molecule that is usually in DNA and RNA. It is biopolymer composed and usually has thirteen or more nucleotides.
RNA is a single polynucleotide chain.

do you mean Polynucleotide?eg.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynucleotide
all i know is that its not phosphate
2 polynucleotide strands make up a DNA and these strands are held togatehr by hydrogen bonds. In D.N.A there are 2 polynucleotide strands in R.N.A there is usually 1 polynucleotide strand.
The part of a nucleotide that can be removed without breaking the chain is the thymine for DNA and the uracil for RNA. These two components are the nucleobases of a nucleotide.

DNA and RNA are both forms of polynucleotide. This means that they are long molecules made up of many individual monomer units. The basic monomer unit of a polynucleotide is a nucleotide. The three primary components of a nucleotide are the phosphate group, the pentose sugar and the nitrogenous base. In DNA, the pentose sugar present in the nucleotides is deoxyribose. In RNA, the pentose sugar present in the nucleotides is ribose. In DNA, the four bases present are adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine. In RNA, the base uracil replaces the base thymine. DNA is also a double-stranded polynucleotide, whereas RNA is a single-stranded polynucleotide.
