DNA consists of two long polymers of simple units called nucleotides, with backbones made of sugars and phosphate groups joined by ester bonds. These two strands run in opposite directions to each other and are therefore anti-parallel. Attached to each sugar is one of four types of molecules called nucleobases .
What else can I help you with?
Are nucleic acids amino acids?
No they're not. A nucleic acid is a polymer of nucleotides (1 nitrogenous base, 1 phosphate group and 1 pentose) bonded together by a phosphodiester bond. The two most famous nucleic acids are RNA and DNA An amino acid is a molecules that makes up polypeptides chains and proteins
How many amino acids does the strand of DNA code for?
A strand of DNA codes for amino acids through the sequence of nucleotides. Each group of three nucleotides, called a codon, corresponds to one amino acid. There are 20 standard amino acids that can be encoded by DNA.
How many amino acids are in DNA and Proteins?
DNA contains no amino acids, it contains nucleic acids. Proteins can contain from 2 amino acids to tens of thousands.
Amino acids are monomers of?
Amino acids ARE monomers- of Proteins: a polymer. Elements C,H,O,N and sometimes s and p make it up..
What nucleic acid provides the instructions for producing amino acids?
DNA provides the instructions for producing amino acids through the process of protein synthesis. Genes, which are specific sequences of DNA, contain the information needed to direct the synthesis of proteins by determining the order of amino acids in a protein.
What pairs a polymer and a monomer?
Polymer: DNA, Monomer: nucleotides Polymer: Proteins, Monomer: amino acids Polymer: Polysaccharides, Monomer: monosaccharides
Which of the following is a polymer a amino acids b monosaccharide c nucleotide d DNA?
DNA is the only polymer in that list. The other 3 options are all individual subunits that could be made into a polymer. Amino acids are the monomers (individual subunits) that up DNA and RNA
Is Enzyme a monomer or polymer?
Enzymes are a type of protein, which are amino acid polymers.
Protein are polymer of?
Proteins are polymers of amino acids.
Is proteins a polymers?
Yes it is a polymer because they are made up of molecules called Amino Acids.
What correctly pairs a polymer and monomer?
which polymer is correctly matched with its monomer A}starch-glucose B}maltose-amino acids C}protein-fatty acids D}lipid-sucrose
Polymer made up of chains of amino acids?
Polymer made up of chains of amino acids, also called a polypeptide?
What is a proteins polymer?
amino acids.
Is a polymer of a protein?
amino acids.
Are polymer of amino acids proteins?
Yes they are the polymers. Amino acids are attached by peptide bond
Are proteins ploymer?
Yes proteins are polymer of amino acids. The monomer units known as amino acids join together by peptide bond to make proteins. the message to make proteins are coded in DNA.
Amino acids are the monomers of what polymer?
Proteins
