It's a bone.

In your back.

Actualy, it is a bone that holds the central nervus system. A long strand of nerves that goes directly to your brain connecting to the other parts of your body.

Part of the backbone in DNA that does not contain phosphorus?

The part of the DNA backbone that does not contain phosphorus is the deoxyribose sugar. It is the sugar molecule that forms the backbone of the DNA strand and is connected to the nitrogenous bases. The phosphate group is the component that connects the sugar molecules, forming the backbone of the DNA.


What constitutes the backbone of DNA?

The backbone of DNA is made up of sugar molecules and phosphate groups. These molecules form a repeating pattern along the length of the DNA strand, providing structural support and stability to the molecule. The nitrogenous bases are attached to this backbone, forming the genetic code of DNA.


Is the backbone a movable joint?

No, the backbone is not a joint. It is made up of individual bones called vertebrae that are connected by ligaments and do not move independently. The backbone provides structure and support to the body and protects the spinal cord.


Where is the deoxyribose located in DNA?

The deoxyribose is located in the backbone of the DNA molecule, forming the sugar-phosphate backbone along with the phosphate groups.


What make up the backbone of a polynucleotide strand?

The backbone of a polynucleotide strand is composed of alternating sugar (deoxyribose or ribose) and phosphate molecules. The sugar-phosphate backbone provides the structural support for the nucleotide bases, which extend from the backbone and form interactions with bases on the opposite strand in DNA or RNA molecules.
