|
Answer» Solution :Living organisms have a number of carbon compounds in which heterocyclic rings a can be found. Some of these nitrogen bases are Adenine (A), Guanine (G), Cytosine (C), Uracil (U), and Thymine (T). When they are called nucleotides. If a phosphate group is also found esterified to the sugar they are called nucleotides. ADENOSINE, guanosine, thymidine, uridine and cytidine are nucleosides. Adenylic acid, THYMIDYLIC acid, guanylic acid, uridylic acid and cytidylic acid are nucleotides. Nucleic ACIDS like DNA and RNA consist of nucleotides only. DNA and RNA function as genetic material.
