Where do nucleotides connect to each other?

Nucleotide molecules connect with each other in phosphate. Nucleotides are composed of three parts: phosphate, deoxyribose and the nitrogen base.

Do the rungs of DNA connect to phosphate or sugar?

Sugar. The backbone of the DNA molecule is composed of ribose and phosphate, but the bases which make up the "rungs" of DNA are always connected to the sugar. The phosphate is used to bond the sugars together into long strings.


What types of bonds connect deoxyribose to the phosphate group?

Deoxyribose is connected to the phosphate group by phosphodiester bonds. These bonds form between the 3' hydroxyl group of the deoxyribose sugar and the phosphate group, linking adjacent nucleotides together in a DNA strand and creating the sugar-phosphate backbone essential for DNA structure.


Do the four nitrogen bases connect to phosphate or sugar?

The four nitrogen bases in DNA (adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine) connect to the sugar component (deoxyribose) of the nucleotides through covalent bonds. The phosphate group then connects to the sugar molecule to form the backbone of the DNA molecule.


What happen to ATP if one phosphate is liberated to provide energy to the cell?

When a phosphate group is cleaved from ATP to form ADP, energy is released that can be used by the cell for various biological processes. This process of breaking the bond between the second and third phosphate groups releases energy and results in the formation of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and an inorganic phosphate molecule.


What part of the DNA ladder connects to phosphate?

In the DNA ladder structure, the phosphate groups connect to the deoxyribose sugar molecules, forming the backbone of the DNA strand. Each deoxyribose sugar is linked to a phosphate group, creating a repeating sugar-phosphate backbone that supports the nitrogenous bases. The nitrogenous bases, which include adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine, extend from the sugars and pair with complementary bases on the opposite strand.


Which enzyme is responsible for creating the covalent bonds that connect the sugar phosphate back bone of the new DNA molecules?

An enzyme called HELICASE breaks the sugar to phosphate bonds in DNA strands to initiate DNA replication and DNA transcription.


What do phosphate bonds connect to?

answ2. Phorphorus is an element essential to life, both animal and plant. Your teeth and bones for example. And phosphorous is essential in the ATP energy cycle inside the mitochondria. (the P of ATP is a phosphorous material)idk, i have this as a science homework question. someone please answer it!


Which enzyme is responsible for creating the covalent bonds that connect the sugar-phosphate backbone of the new DNA molecule?

DNA ligase is the enzyme responsible for creating the covalent bonds that connect the sugar-phosphate backbone of the new DNA molecule during DNA replication and repair processes. It seals the nicks between adjacent nucleotides to form a continuous DNA strand.


What is the name of Na3PO3?

The compound with formula Na3PO4 is named "sodium phosphate", "trisodium phosphate", "sodium ortho-phosphate", or "trisodium ortho-phosphate".


Where do the nucleotides connect with each other in he DNA?

Nucleotides in DNA connect with each other at the phosphate group of one nucleotide and the sugar of the next nucleotide, forming a covalent bond known as a phosphodiester bond. This linkage creates the sugar-phosphate backbone of the DNA strand. Additionally, the nitrogenous bases of the nucleotides pair with complementary bases on the opposite strand through hydrogen bonds, contributing to the double helix structure.
