Are nucleotide and nitrogenous base and nucleic acid related to each other?

Yes, nucleotides are the building blocks of nucleic acids. Each nucleotide is composed of a nitrogenous base, a sugar molecule, and a phosphate group. Nitrogenous bases are a specific type of molecule that make up the nucleotides, which in turn form nucleic acids like DNA and RNA.


Which nucleotide is found in the DNA?

Adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine. Adenine and guanine are double ringed purines and cytosine and thymine are pyrimidines of a single carbon/nitrogen ring.


What is the name of the specific molecule to which the nucleotide is attached?

They are attached to a deoxyribose sugar.

What else is released when a nucleotide is made?

When a nucleotide is made, in addition to the nucleotide itself, a pyrophosphate molecule is also released. This molecule is made up of two phosphate groups. In the process of nucleotide synthesis, pyrophosphate is cleaved from the nucleotide triphosphate, providing the energy needed for the reaction to occur.


What sort of macro-molecule is ATP?

Nucleotide


What are nuclei acids made of?

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.


Which part of a nucleotide molecule encodes genetic information?

The nucleotide bases store the information.
