(a)
Interpretation:
Type of nucleic acid with sugar ribose needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
In
(b)
Interpretation:
Type of nucleic acid with sugar deoxyribose needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
In nucleic acids, there is a pentose sugar group, nitrogenous base and phosphate groups (up to 3). Pentose sugar is specific in two types of nucleic acids. Nitrogenous base, thymine only presence in deoxy ribonucleic acids while uracil is only presence in ribonucleic acids.
(c)
Interpretation:
Type of nucleic acid with the base T needs to be determined.
