Question

which of the following could be a nucleotide of rna?
o deoxymbose + phosphate group + thymine
o deoxymbose + phosphate group + uracil
o nbose + phosphate group + thymine
o nbose + phosphate group + uracil

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

RNA nucleotides contain ribose sugar, a phosphate group, and one of the nitrogen - containing bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), or uracil (U). Thymine (T) is found in DNA nucleotides, not RNA. Deoxyribose is the sugar in DNA nucleotides. So, a nucleotide of RNA should have ribose + phosphate group + uracil.

Answer:

ribose + phosphate group + uracil
