All nucleotides have:
1) a phosphate group (same for all nucleotides)
2) a 5-carbon sugar (same for a particular type of nucleic acid - deoxyribose for DNA, ribose for RNA)
3) nucleoside (purine or pyrimidine base - varies for each nucleotide - there are 5 total - 4 for DNA (adenine, cytosine, guanine, thymine) - 4 for RNA (adenine, cytosine, guanine, uracil)
What else can I help you with?
What are the units of DNA molecules?
Nucleotides
What are two larger molecules made up of nucleotides?
DNA and RNA are made up of nucleotides.
What description best fits class of molecules known as nucleotides?
Nucleotides - A nitrogenous base, a phosphate group, and a pentose sugar.
Rna contains what between the RNa?
RNA contains nucleotides, which are the building blocks of RNA molecules. Nucleotides are connected in a specific sequence to form the RNA molecule.
What are molecules consisting of sub units called nucleotides called?
Nucleic Acids ( I think)
Nucleotides contain what kind of sugars?
The kind of sugars that nucleotides contain is the five carbon ring structure.
What are the units of DNA molecules?
Nucleotides
Molecules of DNA are composed of a long chain are called?
A DNA molecule is composed of long chains of DNA nucleotides.
What are two larger molecules made up of nucleotides?
DNA and RNA are made up of nucleotides.
The sugar molecules found in DNA nucleotides are?
deoxyribose
Dna molecules consist of many sections of?
Nucleotides
Double helix is made of molecules called?
nucleotides!
What type of molecule did you create when you transcribed all of the nucleotides?
When transcribing all the nucleotides in DNA, the resulting molecules are mRNA (messenger RNA) molecules. These mRNA molecules serve as the template for protein synthesis during translation.
Where is a nucleotide on a DNA?
Nucleotides are the molecules that make up the D.N.A.
What description best fits class of molecules known as nucleotides?
Nucleotides - A nitrogenous base, a phosphate group, and a pentose sugar.
What compounds are the building blocks of DNA macro-molecules?
Nucleotides are the monomer units that make up a DNA molecule. DNA nucleotides are composed of a deoxyribose sugar, a nitrogenous base, and a phosphate group.
Which of the nucleotides occurs in DNA molecules but not in RNA molecules?
Thymine is a nucleotide that occurs in DNA molecules but not in RNA molecules. In RNA, thymine is replaced by uracil.
