Chapter 22, Problem 22.39QP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Structure of nucleotide containing deoxyribose and cytosine has to be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

Deoxyribose are pentose sugars.  They are made of five membered rings.  These sugars are part of nucleic acids which constitutes of  DNA and it is the back bone of DNA chain.

Cytosine is a base found in DNA.

Structure of deoxyribose sugar is,

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Structure of nucleotide containing ribose and uracil has to be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

Ribose are pentose sugars.  The difference between ribose and deoxyribose is, the ribose sugar molecule has oxygen atom bonded to the C-2 carbon of the five membered ring whereas deoxy ribose sugar molecule is devoid of oxygen bonded to the C-2 carbon of the five membered ring.

Structure of ribose is,
