Question 11

These are polymer macromolecule and are also referred to as

Answer 11

polynucleotides

Question 12

have 6 membered rings of carbon and nitrogen atoms that tend to take up H* from solutions for which they are called nitrogenous bases. These are cytosine, thymine (in RNA), and
uracil (in DNA).

Answer 12

Pyrimidines

Question 13

Best known for its double helix structure, where 2 strands of nucleotides are arranged in a manner that makes the structure look like a twisted ladder.

Answer 13

DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid)
