It is a 5 carbon sugar
Xylitol is a 5 carbon sugar and fructose is a 6 carbon sugar. They are separate compounds and derived from different sources.
Thymine, like all nucleotides, is composed of three things: A five carbon sugar (ribose), a phosphate group attached to carbon #5 of the sugar, and the nitrogenous base (thymine) attached to carbon #1 of the sugar.
we can say they are same consist of sugar& nitrogen base &phosphate group butDNA nucleotide has deoxyribose sugar (mean 5 carbon rings sugar which we took one hydrogen atom from the ring) and RNA nucleotide has ribose sugar(mean 5 carbon sugar).
Pentose sugar has 5 carbon atoms if that's what your asking..!(:
6 carbon sugar .
yes 5 carbon is a nucleotide
It is a 5 carbon sugar
In DNA the five-carbon sugar is deoxyribose. In RNA the five-carbon sugar is ribose.
It is true, RNA nucleotides contain the five-carbon sugar ribose.
Yes. It is a 5-carbon monosaccharide.
Ribose
It is a ribose sugar.
It is a ribose sugar.
Ribonucleic acid (RNA) has the 5-carbon sugar ribose, and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) contains the 5-carbon sugar deoxyribonucleic acid.
Carbon dioxide is converted to sugar using ATP and NADPH. This process is known as carbon fixation or the Calvin cycle. Carbon dioxide is combined with a 5-carbon sugar creating a 6-carbon sugar. The 6-carbon sugar is eventually broken-down into two molecules, glucose and fructose. These two molecules make sucrose or sugar.
