Detailed explanation-1: -Nucleic acids are giant biomolecules made of monomers called nucleotides. Nucleotides have three components: pentose sugar (5-carbon sugar), phosphate group, and nitrogenous base.
Detailed explanation-2: -Chemists call the monomers “nucleotides.” The five pieces are uracil, cytosine, thymine, adenine, and guanine.
Detailed explanation-3: -A nucleotide is a monomer that serves as the building blocks for deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or ribonucleic acid (RNA). Examples of nucleotides are ribonucleotides or deoxyribonucleotides.
Detailed explanation-4: -The monomers of the DNA are called nucleotides. Nucleotides are composed of four components-a base, deoxyribose sugar, and phosphate residue. DNA is composed of four types of monomers or nucleotides-
