Question
the diagram above shows a strand of dna.
the structures labeled y in figure above are
nitrogen bases
phosphates.
deoxyrlbose sugars.
ribose sugars.
Brief Explanations
In DNA, the nitrogen bases are adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and guanine (G). In the given DNA strand diagram, the structures labeled Y are A, T, C, G which are nitrogen bases. Phosphates are part of the DNA backbone (not labeled Y here). Deoxyribose sugar is also part of the DNA backbone. Ribose sugar is found in RNA, not DNA.
