D)sugar polymers

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA, are created through the formation of phosphodiester bonds between sugar and phosphate molecules. Peptide bonds are found in proteins, a different type of biomolecule. A phosphate and two fatty acids bonded to glycerol form a phospholipid, which is a component of cell membranes but not a nucleic acid. Sugar polymers also exist, but they do not form nucleic acids.
