2. deoxyribose
3. ribose
4. uracil
5. thymine
6. adenine
7. phosphate group
8. hydrogen bonds
which of these are characteristics and components of dna
a. 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7
b. 2, 5, 6, 7, and 8
c. 1, 3, 4, 7, and 8
d. 2, 4, 5, 6, and 7
The correct answer is:
d. 2, 4, 5, 6, and 7
These components are characteristic of DNA:
- Deoxyribose (2)
- Thymine (5)
- Adenine (6)
- Phosphate group (7)
Hydrogen bonds (8) are also characteristic of DNA.
