What is the sugar on RNA?
The sugar of RNA is ribosewhile the sugar of DNA is deoxyribose.
What are the two polymers of nucleic acids?
DNA's sugar is deoxyribose, and RNA's sugar is ribose. (DNA = deoxyribose nucleic acid, RNA = ribonucleic acid)
What is the name of the sugar molecules found in DNA?
The sugar that is found in DNA is called Deoxyribose
Is a phosphate DNA or RNA?
Both DNA and RNA contain a sugar phosphate group as the backbone to their structure. In DNA the sugar is deoxyribose, where as in RNA it is just ribose.
Which sugar is found in nucleic acid?
Nucleic acid types differ in the structure of the sugar in their nucleotides- DNA contains 2 deoxyribose while the RNA contains ribose. The Nucleobases found in the two nucleic acid types are different: adenine, cytosine and guanine are found in both RNA and DNA.
What are found in DNA and rna?
Deoxyribose is the sugar found in DNA. Ribose is the sugar found in RNA.
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 sugar if found in RNA?
Ribose sugar, as opposed to Deoxyribose sugar found in DNA.
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'.
Five carbon sugar found DNA and RNA?
In DNA, the sugar is deoxyribose. In RNA, it is ribose.
What is the 5 carbon sugar of rna?
ribose is the sugar that is in DNA and it is what connects the base pairs to the backbone of the dna
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.
What molecule is found in DNA but not in RNA?
The SUGAR found in DNA but not RNA is Codo.
Name of sugar found in DNA but not RNA?
deoxyibose
What sugar replaces deoxyribose in RNA?
In RNA, there is ribose that replaces deoxyribose.
What is the sugar on RNA?
