What is Understanding Nucleotide Structure about?
1. A nucleotide consists of 3 parts - a nitrogenous base, a 5-carbon sugar, and a phosphate group. 2. The nitrogenous bases differ between nucleotides and include adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine, and uracil. In DNA the bases are adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine. 3. In DNA, the sugar is deoxyribose and the bases of adenine and thymine always occur in equal numbers, as do the bases of guanine and cytosine. This is because adenine pairs with thymine and guanine pairs with cytosine in the DNA double
