검증된 단계별 안내1
Recall the basic structure of a DNA molecule, which consists of a sugar-phosphate backbone and nitrogenous bases attached to the sugars.
Identify the sugar involved in DNA, which is deoxyribose, a five-carbon sugar lacking one oxygen atom compared to ribose found in RNA.
Understand that the backbone is formed by alternating units of deoxyribose sugars and phosphate groups linked by phosphodiester bonds.
Recognize that nitrogenous bases (adenine, thymine, cytosine, guanine) are attached to the deoxyribose sugars but do not form the backbone itself.
Conclude that the correct components forming the DNA backbone are alternating deoxyribose sugars and phosphate groups.
