Question

Which of the following is a nucleotide?

A

Uridine

B

Adenylic acid

C

Guanine

D

Guanosine

Step-by-Step Solution

According to the text, nitrogen bases (like Guanine) attached to a sugar are called nucleosides (e.g., Uridine, Guanosine). When a phosphate group is also found esterified to the sugar, they are called nucleotides. The text explicitly lists 'Adenylic acid' as a nucleotide .

Exam Context & Concepts Covered

This question aligns with the NEET BIOLOGY syllabus, specifically targeting concepts from Biomolecules. Mastering this topic is crucial for scoring well in the upcoming medical entrance examinations. Solving conceptually related problems will help you understand the nuances of these concepts and improve your problem-solving speed.
