Classify the descriptions as pertaining to nucleosides, nucleotides, or both nucleosides and nucleotides.

a. Do not contain a phosphate group
b. The product when a base bonds to carbon 1 of ribose or deoxyribose
c. Contain a base and a monosaccharide monosaccharide, and a phosphate group

Respuesta :

A. Do not contain a phosphate group, and are the product when a base bonds at C1 of ribose or deoxyribose

B. Contain a base, a monosaccharide, and a phosphate group, are the monomers of nucleic acids, and can be named deoxyguanosine 5'- monophosphate


C. Are found in RNA and DNA, contain a base and a monosaccharide, and may contain either ribose or deoxyribose

The correct description is as follows:

  1. Do not contain a phosphate group - nucleosides
  2. The product when a base bonds to carbon 1 of ribose or deoxyribose - nucleoside
  3. Contain a base and a monosaccharide and a phosphate group - nucleotides

What is a nucleoside and nucleotide?

Nucleoside is a a compound consisting of a nitrogenous base (purine or pyrimidine) linked to a sugar e.g. adenosine.

Nucleotide is a compound consisting of a nucleoside linked to a phosphate group i.e. nucleoside + phosphate group = nucleotide

Therefore,

  1. A substance that do not contain a phosphate group - nucleosides
  2. The product when a base bonds to carbon 1 of ribose or deoxyribose - nucleoside
  3. A substance that contain a base and a monosaccharide and a phosphate group - nucleotides
