Question

what is the structure called above?

• nucleotide
• 5 - carbon sugar
• phosphate group
• nitrogen base

Explanation:

A nucleotide is composed of a phosphate group (A), a five - carbon sugar (B), and a nitrogenous base (C). A five - carbon sugar alone is just a sugar molecule. A phosphate group is only one part of the structure. A nitrogen base is also only one component. The combination of these three parts (phosphate group + five - carbon sugar + nitrogenous base) forms a nucleotide.

Answer:

nucleotide
