Answer:
A Nitrogenous base is associate to pentose sugar through “N-Glycosidic linkage” to produce nucleoside.
Explanation:
Thus nucleoside formed on linkage of Nitrogenous and Pentose Sugar are “Guanosine or Deoxyguanosine, Cytidine or Deoxycytidine”, Adenosine or Deoxyadenosine and Uridine or Deoxyuridine. A nucleotide is produced by phosphoester linkage of 5’-OH of nucleoside with phosphate. The backbone of polynucleotide chain is formed with sugar and phosphate. From the backbone, nitrogeneous bases linked to sugar moiety is projected.
