- a nucleotide

∙ 15y agoCarbon, nitrogen, oxygen and hydrogen join together to make the four sugars adenine, guanine, thymine and cytozine, which join together with phosphates to make polyneucleotides, which join together to make genes, which join to make DNA. In short, a nucleotide.

What is the structure of DNA and nucleotide?
A DNA nucleotide is composed of the 5-carbon sugar deoxyribose, a phosphate group, and one of four nitrogen bases; adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and quanine (G). A molecule of DNA is composed of two strands of nucleotides. The nucleotide strands are oriented such that the sugar and phosphate groups alternate down the outside of the strand, and the nitrogen bases are oriented toward the center of the two strands. In a DNA molecule, the two strands of nucleotides pair according to the base-pairing rule, which states that adenine pairs with thymine (A-T), and cytosine pairs with guanine (C-G). The nitrogen bases of the complimentary strands of DNA are held together by hydrogen bonds. Because of the 3-D structure of the nucleotides, the two DNA strands twist into a double helix, often likened to a twisted ladder. Refer to related links for illustrations.
Which enzyme links RNA nucleotides together to form an RNA molecule?
Enzyme RNA polymerase joins nucleotides together
What is the role of tRNA during the translation?
It links the correct amino acids together
What chemical process links monomers together?
Dehydration synthesis
4 lengths of chain with 3 links eachhow can you make a circular chain with 12 links if you only cut and rejoin 3 links?
Completely unjoin all three links of one section of chain and use those three links to link together the remaining chain links.
Which is the subunit of DNA that links together to form strands of DNA?
a nucleotide

a nucleotide
What links the two strands in a helix together in the middle?
Bases with hydrogen bonds are the links.
What are the links between DNA genes chromosomes and proteins?
Chromosomes are long strands of DNA which are held together by proteins.
What molecule links together to form proteins?
Amino acids
Bond type created by DNA ligase?
DNA ligase links together two DNA strands that have double-strand break (a break in both complementary strands of DNA). DNA ligase creates a phosphodiester bond to fully repair the DNA.
What functional group links to monosaccharides in a disaccharide?
It is dehydration synthesis. Basically it is a process in which a molecule of water is removed from the reactant to join reactants together.

What parts of DNA molocules are the basis detected by DNA fingerprinting?
Links between strands
What kind of bond links amino acids together to form a protein?
The ezymes reacting with the proteins like in our food which form amino acids!!
How many nanometers across is the molecule of paper and what is this molecule made of?
there is no "paper" molecule... rather a combination of starches and protein links e.t.c.
What determines what proteins DNA code for?
The sequence of basis on the DNA molecule is what directs the sequence of amino acids in the protein molecule - that's how it all links together! So, the sequence of bases in DNA codes for the sequence of amino acids of a protein.
