What are pentoses? To what organic group do pentoses belong? Are nucleotides formed of only one type of pentose?
Into which two groups can the nitrogen-containing bases that form DNA and RNA be classified? What is the criterion used in that classification?
Who were James Watson, Francis Crik and Maurice Wilkins?
Which are the nucleotides “portions” that bind in the formation of nucleic acids? What is meant by the 5’ and 3’ extremities of nucleic acids?
What is the rule for the pairing of nitrogen-containing bases in the DNA molecule and in the RNA? Is this last question appropriate?
