FLASHCARDS: 2.6 - Structures of DNA and RNA
Cards in this deck (7)
- 12 types of Nucleic acidDNA & RNA
- 2Define Nucleic acidIt is a areg molecule that is constructed by linking together nucleotides to form polymers.
- 3The three parts of a nucleotideSugar(5 carbon atoms), Phosphate group (acidic, -ve charged), and nitrogen base pair
- 4Define base sequenceis the story of information and the sugar-phosphate backbone ensuring that the store is stable and secure
- 5Thre d/f between RNA and DNAone is single and the other one is a double strand, deoxyribose and ribose sugars, Thymine and Uracil.
- 6Describe the structure of a double helixTwo antiparallel strands of nucleotides linked together by hydrogen bonds to b/ complementary base pairs. The two strands wound together.
- 7Describe the directions in a double helix5' to 3' direction and 3' to 5' direction
