Question
the dna nucleotide monomers include what part(s)?
select all that apply
a deoxyribose sugar
b a phosphate group
c the sugar - phosphate backbone
d a nitrogenous base
A DNA nucleotide monomer consists of three parts: a deoxyribose sugar (specific to DNA), a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base (adenine, thymine, cytosine, or guanine). The sugar - phosphate backbone is formed by the linkage of multiple nucleotides, not a part of a single nucleotide monomer. So options a, b, and d are correct.
