Detailed explanation-1: -Each nucleotide, in turn, is made up of a nitrogenous base, a pentose sugar, and a phosphate.
Detailed explanation-2: -A nucleotide consists of a sugar molecule (either ribose in RNA or deoxyribose in DNA) attached to a phosphate group and a nitrogen-containing base.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: This statement is true. Each nucleotide will consist of three components: a pentose sugar (it may be deoxyribose, or ribose), a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base bound to the pentose sugar (depending on the nucleic acid, it may be adenine, cytosine, guanine, and either thymine or uracil).
Detailed explanation-4: -The 3′-end (three prime end) of a strand is so named due to it terminating at the hydroxyl group of the third carbon in the sugar-ring, and is known as the tail end.
