Lipids are hydrophobic and do not dissolve in water. They are not polymers and play structural roles, such as forming cell membranes.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 9: Biomolecules Nucleic Acids - DNA RNA Structure and Functions
Phosphodiester bonds link nucleotides in a DNA strand by joining the phosphate group of one nucleotide to the sugar of another.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 9: Biomolecules Nucleic Acids - DNA RNA Structure and Functions
DNA contains thymine, whereas RNA contains uracil instead of thymine.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 9: Biomolecules Nucleic Acids - DNA RNA Structure and Functions
Uracil replaces thymine in RNA, whereas thymine is present in DNA.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 9: Biomolecules Nucleic Acids - DNA RNA Structure and Functions
Proteins do not store genetic information; nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) perform this function.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 9: Biomolecules Nucleic Acids - DNA RNA Structure and Functions
Nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) contain phosphodiester bonds that link nucleotides together.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 9: Biomolecules Nucleic Acids - DNA RNA Structure and Functions
Some nucleotides, like ATP and GTP, function as energy carriers in cellular metabolism.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 9: Biomolecules Nucleic Acids - DNA RNA Structure and Functions
DNA contains deoxyribose sugar, while RNA contains ribose. DNA is double-stranded, and RNA has uracil instead of thymine.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 9: Biomolecules Nucleic Acids - DNA RNA Structure and Functions
Nucleotides consist of a phosphate group, a nitrogenous base, and a sugar. They contain phosphorus, DNA contains deoxyribose, and RNA contains nitrogenous bases.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 9: Biomolecules Nucleic Acids - DNA RNA Structure and Functions
Nucleotides consist of a pentose sugar, phosphate group, and nitrogenous base and serve as the building blocks of nucleic acids.
