- Which of the following is correct regarding nucleotide structure? Removal of the ribose-phosphate groups from thymidylic acid or thymidylate yields thymidine Removal of the ribose-phosphate groups from cytidine yields cytosine Removal of the phosphate group from guanylic acid or guanylate yields guanine. Removal of the phosphate group from adenylate or adenylic acid yields adenosinearrow_forwardNucleotides in DNA pair via: ionic bonds hydrogen bonds covalent bonds None of the answers are correct. Suppose you are analyzing a nucleic acid sequence that contains guanine, cytosine, adenine, and uracil nucleotides. What type of nucleic acid could this be? Select all that apply. mRNA tRNA DNA rRNAarrow_forwardThe nucleotides are very specific as to which bond together. The four nucleotides are:Adenine (A) Thymine (T)Guanine (G) Cytosine (C)They are written out in this order because Adenine always bonds with Thymine and Cytosine alwaysbonds with Guanine. Draw a line connecting those so you remember.Let’s practice making complementary strands. DNA: T-A-C-T-T-A-C-A-C-G-T-C-A-A-C-G-T-G-C-C-T-T-A-G-C-C-A-T-TDNA: A-T-GGo ahead and write out the complementary strand to the strand above continuing where we left off.arrow_forward
