What is the monomer of Nucleic Acids?
monomer of nucleic acids are a sugar, phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base
Are nucleic acids the monomers of DNA?
No, DNA is a nucleic acid. The monomers of DNA are nucleotides - each of which is made up of a sugar, a phosphate and a nitrogenous base.
What are the major components of nucleic acids?
They are made up of nucleotides.Nucleotides contain pentose sugar,nitrogenous base and a phosphate group.
What is the backbone of nucleic acid polymers composed of?
All marcomolecules (including nucleic acids) have a backbone of carbon.
What is made up of three parts a deoxyribose sugar a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base?
nucleotides that are the building blocks of nucleic acids are made up of sugar, a nitrogen base and phosphate group
Is phosphorus a nucleotide?
Yes, nitrogen is found in nucleic acids in the form of nitrogenous base. Actually, nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) are linear polymers of nucleotides (a purine or pyrimidine nitrogenous base + a pentose sugar + a phosphate group).
