  • Polynucleotides: DNA and RNA Explained - Structure & Function
    Here are 2 examples of polynucleotides:

    1. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA): This is the genetic material found in most living organisms. It is a double-stranded polynucleotide made up of nucleotides containing deoxyribose sugar, a phosphate group, and one of four nitrogenous bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T).

    2. Ribonucleic acid (RNA): This is a single-stranded polynucleotide involved in protein synthesis. It is made up of nucleotides containing ribose sugar, a phosphate group, and one of four nitrogenous bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and uracil (U).
