Question

A nucleoside differs from nucleotide in not having

Answer 1

Nucleoside = N₂ bases + pentose sugar

Nucleotide = N₂ bases + pentose sugar + phosphate(PO₄)

So, Nucleoside differs from Nucleotide by not having PO₄

Answer 2

Explanation:

Nucleoside =DNA/RNA+ nitrogen base

eg [Adenine (N2 base) +Sugar(DNA/RNA)]

Nucleotide =nucleoside+Phosphoric acid

it is attached by sugar through ester bond also called phospodiester bond
