Question

Tick the statement which is not true about nucleic acids? (A) The hydrolysis of DNA produces β -D-2- deoxyribose (B) The hydrolysis of RNA produces thymine (C) The molecular mass of a nucleotide is greater than a nucleoside (D) Nucleotides are joined together by phosphodiester linkage to for dinucleotide

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

The hydrolysis of RNA produces uracil instead of thymine. Nitrogenous base i.e. purine bases are same as that in DNA but pyrimidine bases are cytosine and uracil (U). (In RNA uracil replaces thymine).

Q. Tick the statement which is not true about nucleic acids?

The hydrolysis of DNA produces $β - D - 2$ - deoxyribose

The hydrolysis of RNA produces thymine

The molecular mass of a nucleotide is greater than a nucleoside

Nucleotides are joined together by phosphodiester linkage to for dinucleotide
