For the following structural characteristics, decide if it is a characteristic of DNA, a characteristic of RNA, a characteristic of both DNA and RNA, or a characteristic of neither DNA RNA. It contains a phosphate group of every nucleotide

Respuesta :

both.  Every nucleotide has a sugar, a nitrogenous base, and a phosphate group

The correct answer is it is characteristic of both DNA and RNA.

Each nucleotide contains a nitrogen base, a sugar group and a phosphate group.

DNA is made of nitrogen base adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine,

deoxyribose sugar and a phosphate group.

RNA is made up of adenine, uracil, guanine and cytosine, ribose sugar and a phosphate group.
