Does RNA contain phosphodiester bonds?

Yes, RNA contains phosphodiester bonds. These bonds link the nucleotides together in the RNA molecule.


What binds strands of DNA together?

Phosphodiester bonds bind the strands together. A phosphodiester bond is a phosphorus atom involved in two ester bonds.


What bond is between nucleic acids?

In producing a strand of DNA the nucleotides combine to form phosphodiester bonds.


What type of bonds make p DNA and where in DNA do you find these bonds?

The bonds are called hydrogen bonds. You can find these bonds in the nucleotides of DNA.

phosphodiester bonds


What holds sugar molecules together?

quite simply, bonds. The strength of these bonds depends on the type of element or compound that forms the solid. These 'particles' you refer to are best known as 'atoms' and the atoms that form a solid are held together by these bonds.


How are nucleotides joined together within a single DNA strand?

I just did this paper in Biology, the answer is Hydrogen bonds! :)


What are the bonds found in DNA molecules?

The bonds found in DNA molecules are hydrogen bonds between complementary nitrogenous bases (adenine-thymine and guanine-cytosine) and phosphodiester bonds between the sugar and phosphate groups of adjacent nucleotides in the backbone of the DNA strand.


What are the bonds that join the DNA sides?

The bonds that join the DNA sides are called hydrogen bonds. These bonds form between complementary base pairs (adenine with thymine, and guanine with cytosine) on the two strands of the DNA double helix. This hydrogen bonding is essential for maintaining the structure and stability of the DNA molecule.


Is phosphodiester bonds used to link nucleotides?

Yes, phosphodiester bonds are used to link nucleotides in a nucleic acid molecule, forming the sugar-phosphate backbone. These bonds connect the 3' carbon of one nucleotide's sugar group to the 5' carbon of the next nucleotide in the chain.


What bonds form a polynucleotide strand?

A polynucleotide strand forms from covalent bonds known as phosphodiester bonds, which link together the individual nucleotides (composed of a sugar, phosphate group, and nitrogenous base). These phosphodiester bonds connect the 3' carbon of one nucleotide to the 5' carbon of the next nucleotide in the strand, creating a linear chain.


What is phosphodiester?

A phosphodiester bond is a group of strong covalent bonds between a phosphate group and two 5-carbon ring carbohydrates (pentoses) over two ester bonds. Phosphodiester bonds are central to all life on Earth, as they make up the backbone of the strands of DNA.
