Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Recall the basic structure of a nucleotide, which is the building block of DNA.
Understand that each nucleotide is composed of three main components: a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base.
Identify the type of sugar present in DNA nucleotides, which is deoxyribose, distinguishing it from ribose found in RNA.
Recognize that the phosphate group links nucleotides together to form the backbone of the DNA strand.
Conclude that the correct components of a DNA nucleotide are a phosphate group, a deoxyribose sugar, and a nitrogenous base.
