Phosphate ; Sugar ; Base

Front

What is the main difference between the DNA of a cat and a dog?

Back

The sequence of A, T, C, G is different.

Front

What is a nucleotide?

Back

A nucleotide is the basic building block of DNA, consisting of a phosphate group, a sugar (deoxyribose), and a nitrogenous base.

Front

What type of sugar is found in DNA?

Back

Deoxyribose

Front

What are the four nitrogen bases in DNA?

Back

Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, Guanine.

Front

What is the structure of DNA?

Back

DNA is a double helix formed by two strands of nucleotides twisted around each other.

Front

What is the function of DNA?

Back

DNA stores genetic information and provides instructions for the development and functioning of living organisms.

Front

What is complementary base pairing?

Back

Complementary base pairing refers to the specific pairing of nitrogen bases in DNA: Adenine pairs with Thymine, and Cytosine pairs with Guanine.

Front

What is the role of the phosphate group in DNA?

Back

The phosphate group links the sugar of one nucleotide to the sugar of the next nucleotide, forming the backbone of the DNA strand.
