Why do think nucleotides are also sometimes referred to as “bases” or “nucleotide bases”? What is the difference between a nucleotide and a nucleoside? Explain by giving an example, using structures. What kind of bond links a base to some sugar? Is the sugar an alpha or beta anomer? In what position(s) of the sugar does this occur? In what position(s) of the base does this occur? Instead of the term “Formation of a nucleoside”, what could the name of the reaction be? What functional group is being formed? Define the primary structure of DNA/RNA. Compare and contrast to the primary structure of proteins.
If one side of DNA molecule had a base sequence of adenine-adenine-guanine-cytosine-thymine-cytosine-thymine, what would the sequence of bases on the opposite side of the molecule be?
Which statement is true concerning the nucleotide shown below? The base is a purine and the sugar is ribose. The base is a pyrimidine and the base is ribose. The base is a pyrimidine and the sugar is deoxyribose. The base is a purine and the sugar is deoxyribose.
Which of the following is correct regarding nucleotide structure? Removal of the ribose-phosphate groups from thymidylic acid or thymidylate yields thymidine Removal of the ribose-phosphate groups from cytidine yields cytosine Removal of the phosphate group from guanylic acid or guanylate yields guanine. Removal of the phosphate group from adenylate or adenylic acid yields adenosine

In the DNA structure, a purine molecule always binds with a pyrimidine molecule. How would you expect the structure to differ if Adenine forms base pairing with Guanine and Cytosine forms base pairing with Thymidine? Instead of A-T, G-C; can it be A-G, C-T? Justify your answer within five sentences
Which one of these facts would NOT be needed in order to determine the correct base sequence from the image of DNA in the question above? Adenine and guanine are purines with a two-ring chemical structure. Cytosine and thymine are pyrimidines with a one-ring chemical structure. Adenine pairs only with thymine using two hydrogen-bonds. Cytosine pairs only with guanine using three hydrogen-bonds. All of the facts above are needed.
