Ribose is not found in DNA as it stands for Deoxyribonucleic Acid, so the deoxygenated form of ribose is found in the molecule. Ribose sugars can form RNA or ribonucleic acid.
The deoxyribose sugars (along with phosphate groups) form the "backbone" of the DNA helix, each deoxyribose (or pentose sugar {pentose=5 carbons}) is bonded to one base each (A/T/G/C)

What is sugar in DNA?
Deoxyribose is found in DNA while ribose is found in RNA.
What sugar is found in DNA and RNA?
In DNA, the sugar found is 2-deoxyribose. In RNA, the sugar found is ribose. Both are 5-carbon sugars. The only difference between them is that the first mentioned above has one oxygen atom less than ribose sugar, at the position 2'.
What sugar replaces deoxyribose in RNA?
In RNA, there is ribose that replaces deoxyribose.
Name of sugar found in DNA but not RNA?
deoxyibose
What is the name of a sugar found in DNA but not in RNA?
DNA has the deoxyribose sugar, while RNA has the ribose sugar.
Which chemical is not found in DNA nucleotide?
ribose
Which substances found in RNA but not in DNA?
ribose.
What are found in DNA and rna?
Deoxyribose is the sugar found in DNA. Ribose is the sugar found in RNA.
Is ribose sugar found in DNA and why?
D in DNA stands for Deoxyribose. R in RNA stands for Ribose. Deoxyribose is ribose but the 2' hydroxyl group is not present.

What is the name of a sugar found in DNA but not in RNA?
DNA has the deoxyribose sugar, while RNA has the ribose sugar.
What is found in DNA but not RNA?
Uracil. It takes place of thymine in DNA.
Five carbon sugar found DNA and RNA?
In DNA, the sugar is deoxyribose. In RNA, it is ribose.
What type of sugar does RNA and DNA contain?
Nucleic Acids store and transmit hereditary, or genetic,information. There are two types of nucleic acids which are Ribonucleic acid (RNA) and Deoxyribonuleic acid (DNA). RNA contains the sugar ribose and DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose.
