Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -What is deoxyribose? The Deoxyribose definition is a pentose (5-carbon sugar) biological molecule. Deoxyribose sugar, along with phosphate, makes up the sugar-phosphate backbone in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). DNA is the genetic code present in living organisms.
Detailed explanation-2: -Deoxyribose is the five-carbon sugar molecule that helps form the phosphate backbone of DNA molecules. DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid is a polymer formed of many nucleic acids. Each nucleic acid is composed of a deoxyribose molecule bound to both a phosphate group and either a purine or a pyrimidine.
Detailed explanation-3: -The pentose sugar in DNA is called deoxyribose, and in RNA, the sugar is ribose.
