Question

question 15 (2.5 points)
a nucleotide consists of

a five carbon sugar, a nitrogenous acid, and a phosphate group

a six carbon sugar, a nitrogenous base, and a phosphate group

a five carbon sugar, a nitrogenous base, and a phosphate group

a six carbon sugar, a nitrogenous acid, and a phosphate group

a four carbon sugar, a nitrogenous acid, and a phosphate group

question 16 (2.5 points)
a protein that is linked to a carbohydrate is known as a

glycoprotein

lipoprotein

fibrous proteins

denatured proteins

prions

question 17 (2.5 points)

Explanation:

• For Question 15: A nucleotide is composed of a five - carbon sugar (ribose or deoxyribose), a nitrogenous base (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine, or uracil), and a phosphate group.
• For Question 16: A glycoprotein is a protein that has a carbohydrate moiety attached to it. Lipoproteins have lipid attached, fibrous proteins have a structural role, denatured proteins have lost their native structure, and prions are misfolded proteins.

Answer:

Question 15: a five carbon sugar, a nitrogenous base, and a phosphate group
Question 16: glycoprotein
