✏️Deoxybrose Sugar
- They include RNA (ribonucleic acid) as well as DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid).
- These nucleic acids contain the elements carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus.
- All biochemical compounds contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen; and proteins as well as nucleic acids contain nitrogen.
- Nucleotides can be separated into purines and pyrimidines.
There are just 3 components of nucleotide:
⭐Deoxyribose(sugar) and phosphate group. In DNA, complementary nitrogen bases on opposite strands are connected with hydrogen bond. This is how two DNA strands are held together.
