    each of these components?
    a. 5-carbon sugar
    b. nitrogenous base
    c. phosphate group
    d. nucleic acid

    _______ 2. The image shows a nucleotide, a building block of the DNA molecule.

    b. nucleic acid, 5-carbon sugar, amino group
    c. 5-carbon sugar, nitrogenous base, carboxyl group
    d. nitrogenous base, 5-carbon sugar, phosphate group

    3. Circle the words or phrases that complete the sentence.

    DNA is made up of (nucleotides / nitrogenous bases), joined by covalent


    bonds between the (adenine / guanine / thymine/ deoxyribose) of one
    monomer and the (phosphate group / nitrogenous base) of the next monomer.

    important clues about the structure of the DNA molecule.
    What was revealed by the photograph that enabled Watson and Crick to build
    their model of the DNA molecule? Select all that apply.
    a. The nitrogenous bases form the backbone on the outside of each DNA
    strand.
