Multiple Choice

Nucleotides are composed of a phosphate group, a 5-carbon sugar, and a nitrogenous base. DNA is made up of long strands of nucleotides.

What makes one nucleotide different from another?

differences in the phosphate group

differences in the pentose sugar

differences in the nitrogenous base

the order in which the nucleotides are arranged on one side of the DNA strand

DNA is the template to make

. The process of synthesizing RNA from DNA is called

or gene expression. First, the DNA helix unzips itself by breaking the hydrogen bonds that holds the nitrogenous bases together. The RNA

pair with DNA nucleotides to form a single strand of RNA. RNA has a unique nitrogenous base that DNA does not contain; this base is

. The uracil base bonds to adenine since they are not any

bases found in RNA. Once the RNA strand is complete, it is released from the DNA strand. The RNA strand that remains is called the messenger RNA or mRNA.
