Nucleosides are glycosylamine, a nucleotide with a phosphate group, which is a nitrogenous base (purine or pyrimidine) bound by a beta-glycosidic linkage to a five carbon sugar (ribose or deoxyribose).

Answer:
Nucleosides are glycosylamines that can be thought of as nucleotides without a phosphate group.
When nucleosides are incorporated into DNA, adjacent nucleotides are linked by a phosphodiester bond: a covalent bond is formed between the 5' phosphate group of one nucleotide and the 3'-OH group of another (see below). In this manner, each strand of DNA has a “backbone” of phosphate-sugar-phosphate-sugar-phosphate.
