Nitrogenous bases Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

What are the 4 nitrogenous bases? Which pair together? Correct Answer-adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), guanine (G) A->T, C->G What are the issues with these combinations: 1.) Pyrimidine + Pyrimidine = 2.) Purine + Purine = 3.) Pyrimidine + Purine = Correct Answer-1.) width of DNA too narrow 2.) width of DNA too wide 3.) width of DNA consistent with X-ray model Which bases are purines and which are pyrimidines? Correct Answer-purines: A,G pyrimidines: T,C What are...

What is DNA? Correct Answer-A linear, double-stranded structure composed of multiple units of four different nitrogenous bases, each attached to a sugar molecule Bases are nucleoprotiens created from proteins we eat. They can be single ring structures (pyrimidines) or double-ring structures (purines). What are the pyrimidines and what are purines? Correct Answer-Adenine and Guanine are purines. Thymine and cytosine are pyrimidines What is the purpose of a gene? Correct Answer-To code for t...
