Each nucleotide consists of a sugar in the middle of a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base .
There are two classes of bases. Two are purines (double-ringed structures) and two are pyrimidines (single-ringed structures).Very basically, they are made of a nitrogen base, a pentose (5 carbons) sugar and a phosphate group.
