A nucleotide consists of three things: A nitrogenous base, which can be either adenine, guanine, cytosine, or thymine (in the case of RNA, thymine is replaced by uracil). A five-carbon sugar, called deoxyribose because it is lacking an oxygen group on one of its carbons. One or more phosphate groups.

A Nucleotide consist of three parts :

● Nucleobase or nitrogenous base (Purines and pyrimidines).
● One Phosphate group.
