In the polymerization of DNA a phosphodiester bond is formed between a phosphate group of the nucleotide being added and what of the nucleotide in the polymer?

The phosphate group of the incoming nucleotide joins the 3'-hydroxyl group of the last nucleotide in the growing DNA chain to form a phosphodiester bond.


What is the difference from DNA nucleotide and DNA polymer?

A nucleotide is a single structural unit of DNA. If two or more nucleotides are combined together by a polymerase enzyme, the resulting molecule is a polymer. RNA is also composed of nucleotides and can be formed into polymers.


Which of the following is a polymer a amino acids b monosaccharide c nucleotide d DNA?

DNA is the only polymer in that list. The other 3 options are all individual subunits that could be made into a polymer. Amino acids are the monomers (individual subunits) that up DNA and RNA


What is the polymer of dna known as?

The monomer units of DNA are nucleotides, and the polymer is known as a "polynucleotide." Each nucleotide consists of a 5-carbon sugar (deoxyribose), a nitrogen containing base attached to the sugar, and a phosphate group.


What is the job of nucleotide?

A nucleotide is the monomer of a nucleic acid. When many nucleotides go through polymerization, then they create a polymer called a polynucleotide. Which are the building blocks for DNA and RNA.


Is a nucleic acid a monomer or a polymer?

Nucleic acids are polymers made up of monomeric units called nucleotides. Each nucleotide consists of a phosphate group, a sugar molecule, and a nitrogenous base. Multiple nucleotides linked together form a nucleic acid chain, which can be either DNA or RNA.


Which enzyme is responsible for making a polymer of DNA by adding one nucleotide monomer at a time?

DNA polymerase is the enzyme responsible for adding nucleotide monomers one at a time to the growing DNA strand during replication.
