Front

What type of bond joins nitrogenous bases in DNA?

Back

Nitrogenous bases in DNA are joined by hydrogen bonds.

Front

What are the two molecules that form the backbone of the DNA ladder?

Back

The backbone of the DNA ladder is formed by deoxyribose sugar and phosphate.

What is the difference between DNA and RNA?

Back

DNA contains deoxyribose sugar and thymine, while RNA contains ribose sugar and uracil.

Front

What is the role of RNA in protein synthesis?

Back

RNA acts as a messenger carrying instructions from DNA for controlling the synthesis of proteins.

Front

What is a nucleotide?

Back

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