What else can I help you with?
Which structure above represents the deoxyribose component of the DNA backbone?
The structure with a "H" atom in place of an "OH" group represents deoxyribose in the DNA backbone. This is because deoxyribose lacks an oxygen atom at the 2' position, distinguishing it from ribose in RNA.
What is the diameter of a phosphorus atom in picometers?
The diameter of a phosphorus atom is approximately 100 picometers.
Does RNA contain base deoxyribose and phosphates?
Yes.
Does DNA ribose contain sugar?
no, DNA contains deoxyribose, and RNA contains ribose
What is the identity of an atom with 15 protons?
Elements are identified by number of protons on the periodic table. Number 15 is Phosphorus.
Does RNA contain the sugar deoxyribose?
No, RNA does not contain the sugar deoxyribose. RNA contains the sugar ribose.
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.
Does RNA contain deoxyribose?
No, RNA does not contain deoxyribose. RNA contains ribose, which is a different type of sugar molecule.
Does DNA contain deoxyribose as a component?
Yes, DNA contains deoxyribose as a component.
Does DNA contain deoxyribose in its structure?
Yes, DNA contains deoxyribose in its structure.
Does DNA contain deoxyribose sugar?
Yes, DNA contains deoxyribose sugar.
Does DNA contain ribose or deoxyribose in its structure?
DNA contains deoxyribose in its structure.
How many electrons are outside the nucleus of a phosphorus atom?
The neutral atom of phosphorus has 15 electrons in the atom.
Does RNA contain ribose or deoxyribose in its structure?
RNA contains ribose in its structure, not deoxyribose.
What specific atom in ribose makes it more reactive than deoxyribose?
The presence of an oxygen atom in ribose's 2' carbon makes it more reactive than deoxyribose, which lacks this oxygen atom.
Is phosphorus in cyanide?
No. Cyanide can refer to number of compounds that contain the cyanide ion, (containing carbon and nitrogen). In most forms it is combined with sodium, potassium, or hydrogen.
How many electrons are in an atom of phosphorus?
An atom of phosphorus typically has 15 electrons.
