Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
In RNA, is the sugar in the nucleotide.
A
ribose
B
RNA polymerase
C
stop codon
D
lactose
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Explanation: Ribose is a 5C sugar found in RNA, hence the name Ribose Nucleic Acid.

Detailed explanation-2: -Unlike DNA, RNA is usually single-stranded. Additionally, RNA contains ribose sugars rather than deoxyribose sugars, which makes RNA more unstable and more prone to degradation. RNA is synthesized from DNA by an enzyme known as RNA polymerase during a process called transcription.

Detailed explanation-3: -The pentose sugar in DNA is called deoxyribose, and in RNA, the sugar is ribose.

Detailed explanation-4: -ribose, also called D-ribose, five-carbon sugar found in RNA (ribonucleic acid), where it alternates with phosphate groups to form the “backbone” of the RNA polymer and binds to nitrogenous bases.

Detailed explanation-5: -(Top) -d-Ribose is the ribose sugar found in RNA molecules.
