Detailed explanation-1: -DNA is made up of four building blocks called nucleotides: adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), and cytosine (C). The nucleotides attach to each other (A with T, and G with C) to form chemical bonds called base pairs, which connect the two DNA strands.
Detailed explanation-2: -There are four nucleotides, or bases, in DNA: adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T).
Detailed explanation-3: -The three components of a nucleotide are nitrogenous base, sugar and phosphate.
Detailed explanation-4: -Nucleotides in DNA and RNA In DNA, the bases are adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), and cytosine (C). In RNA, the bases are adenine, guanine, uracil, and cytosine. In DNA, the sugar is 2’-deoxyribose. In RNA, the sugar is ribose.
