Match the bond/force with the correct description in nucleic acid structure.
____ bond that connect ribose sugar with nitrogenous base in a nucleotide
____bond that connects two monomers (nucleotides) into a polymer (nucleic acid)
___ bond that allows A to pair with T
____ bond that holds DNA strands together in a double helix
___ interaction of ribose in water
1. covalent bond
2. hydrogen bond
3. ionic bond
A nucleotide is polymer composed of three things:
1- sugar
2- Nitrogenous base
3-phosphate
-Bond between ribose sugar and nucleotide is -Covalent Bond( N Glycosidic bond)
-Bond that connect two nucleotide is - Covalent Bond (Phosphodiester bond formed between the 3'-OH group of one sugar molecule and 5' phosphate group on the adjacent sugar molecule)
-Bond that connect two nitrogenous base is Hydrogen bond
-Bond holding DNA strand together is Hydrogen bond
-ribose in water - Hydrogen bond
