Answer:

The correct answer would be B. identification of ribose and deoxyribose.

Phoebus Aaron Theodore Levene is famous for his studies regarding the structure and function of nucleic acids.

He categorized different forms of nucleic acids which are DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid).

He also found the components of DNA which are adenine, thymine, cytosine, guanine, deoxyribose, and a phosphate group.

He also identified deoxyribose and ribose sugars. In addition, he identified that the DNA deoxyribose and ribose
