Answer :
Answer:
either deoxyribose or ribose
Explanation:
i can't see the diagram, but-
- if the diagram shows a single stranded chain of rna, then the answer is ribose
- if the diagram shows a double stranded chain of dna, then the answer is deoxyribose
- uracil and thymine are nucleic acids, not sugars/carbohydrates
The question is incomplete as it lacks the diagram, however the specific diagram is attached with answer:
The sugar is present in the nucleic acid that is represented in the diagram is - Ribose
Sugar can be two type of in a nucleic acid either deoxy ribose or ribose, to determine the type of sugar that is present of this particular nucleic acid is by -
- The strand is single stranded as RNA, and not double stranded as in DNA.
- Another fact is the direction to state that this a polynucleotide stranded molecule of RNA, is by the presence of the nitrogenous base, Uracil.
- DNA in place has thymine, uracil is only found on RNA,
Thus, sugar is present in the nucleic acid that is represented in the diagram is - Ribose
