Question

multiple choice question guanosine triphosphate is a(n) ________. polysaccharide protein nucleotide enzyme

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Guanosine triphosphate (GTP) is composed of a guanine - containing nucleoside (guanosine) and three phosphate groups. Nucleotides are composed of a nitrogen - containing base, a five - carbon sugar, and one or more phosphate groups. GTP fits this definition as it has a base (guanine), a sugar (ribose in the case of guanosine), and three phosphate groups. Polysaccharides are long - chain carbohydrates, proteins are polymers of amino acids, and enzymes are proteins or RNA molecules that catalyze chemical reactions.

Answer:

C. nucleotide
