Question

match each structure to its correct name:
column a
1.
2.
3.
column b
a. nitrogenous base(s)
b. phosphate group
c. deoxyribose sugar

Explanation:

1. The first structure (pentagon) is deoxyribose sugar (a 5 - carbon sugar in DNA), so it matches with c.
2. The second structures (A, G, T, C) are nitrogenous bases, so they match with a.
3. The third structure (circle) represents the phosphate group, so it matches with b.

Answer:

1. c. Deoxyribose sugar
2. a. Nitrogenous base(s)
3. b. Phosphate group
