Answers
A nucleotide is an organic molecule with a basic composition of a nitrogenous base, pentose sugar and phosphate.
DNA and RNA are polynucleotides, which contain a chain of nucleotides monomers with different nitrogenous bases.
Nucleotides are essential for carrying out metabolic and physiological activities.
ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) acts as the energy currency of cells. Nucleotides form various coenzymes and cofactors, such as NAD, NADP, FAD, coenzyme A, etc. and are essential for many metabolic processes.
Nucleotides are the building blocks of the nucleic acids RNA and DNA. These two types of nucleic acid are essential biomolecules in all forms of life on Earth.A nucleotide is composed of a nucleobase (nitrogenous base), a five-carbon sugar (either ribose or 2-deoxyribose), and one phosphate group ...
