Question

what are the components of a dna nucleotide?
o deoxyribose, a nitrate, and one of the bases: adenine, cytosine, guanine, or thymine
o ribose, a phosphate, and one of the bases: adenine, cytosine, guanine, or thymine
o deoxyribose, a phosphate, and one of the bases: adenine, cytosine, guanine, or thymine
o ribose, a nitrate, and one of the bases: adenine, cytosine, guanine, or thymine

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

A DNA nucleotide consists of deoxyribose sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogen - containing base (adenine, cytosine, guanine, or thymine). Ribose is in RNA nucleotides, and nitrate is not part of DNA nucleotides.

Answer:

C. deoxyribose, a phosphate, and one of the bases: adenine, cytosine, guanine, or thymine
