DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is an organic polymer whose monomer is a nucleotide. A nucleotide is made up of a nitrogenous base (Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine in DNA, Uracil replaces Thymine in RNA), a pentose (5 carbons) sugar (deoxyribose in DNA and ribose in RNA), and a number of phosphate (PO4) groups ranging from 1 to 3 (1 in polymeric form, 2 or 3 when free in solution).
Yes, two DNA fragments can join together and circularize in the presence of DNA ligase in a ligation reaction. This is a common method used in molecular biology to create circular DNA molecules from linear fragments.
Carbohydrates like glucose and fructose have ring structures in their molecular form. Additionally, nucleic acids such as DNA and RNA also form ring structures in their molecular arrangement.
The molecular weight of a DNA base pair is approximately 650 daltons.
The molecular weight of a base pair in DNA is approximately 650 daltons.
Yes, both DNA and RNA contain ribose in their molecular structure.

The backbone of the DNA molecule is composed of alternating sugar (deoxyribose) and phosphate units. These sugar-phosphate units are connected by phosphodiester bonds to form the backbone of the DNA strand.
Yes, two DNA fragments can join together and circularize in the presence of DNA ligase in a ligation reaction. This is a common method used in molecular biology to create circular DNA molecules from linear fragments.
They are the nucleotides adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine.

Macromolecules.
They are the nucleotides adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine.
Polymers are high molecular weight substances made up of repeating units of monomer molecules. Examples include plastics, proteins, polysaccharides, and nucleic acids like DNA and RNA.

UHMPE - Ultra High Mass Polyethylene - but most polymers, by definition, have high molecular mass.
Yes, both DNA and RNA contain ribose in their molecular structure.
