Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Base and monosaccharide in below nucleoside have to be identified. Also, its name has to be assigned.
Concept Introduction:
A nucleoside is a monomer unit that forms the basic structure of the
Nucleosides are named accordingly as follows:
1. Identify the type of sugar unit attached is ribose or deoxyribose. If in the structure of nucleoside there is an
2. Identify the name of the different nitrogen bases present in the molecule. There are two types of bases that are pyrimidine base and purine base.
(a). Pyrimidine base consists of one ring and is present in uracil, cytosine, and thymine.
(b). Purine base consists of two rings and is present in adenine and guanine.
3. Nucleosides with pyrimidine bases end with the suffix
(b)
Interpretation:
Base and monosaccharide in below nucleoside has to be identified. Also, its name has to be assigned.
Concept Introduction:
Refer to part (a).
