Answer:
d. nitrogen-containing base
.
Explanation:
A nucleotide comprises a phosphate group, a pentose sugar and a nitrogenous base (nitrogen-containing base).
A nitrogenous base is a type of aromatic heterocyclic organic compound which essentially has nitrogen in it. The base can be a purine or pyrimidine. Purine nitrogenous bases are adenine (A) and guanine (G) while pyrimidine nitrogenous bases are cytosine (C), thiamine (T) and uracil (U).
Till the time a base is not attached to covalently linked phosphate group and a pentose sugar, it is known as nucleoside. But as soon as we attach any nitrogenous base to the nucleoside, a nucleotide is formed. So it means a nucleotide is nucleoside + nitrogenous base.
Examples are as under:
A nucleotide which has adenine as nitrogenous base is known as adenosine triphosphate (ATP) while a nucleotide which has guanine as nitrogenous base is known as Guanosine-5'-triphosphate (GTP).
Answer:
Carbon reservoirs are underground oil or gas trap that form reees.clastic limestones etc.This is the most earths carbon stored in rocks and sediments.Ocean,Biosphere,Soil Carbon are some examples of carbon reservoirs.
Theres the shoot system and the root system
the shoot system is above ground and includes the plants organs which are the leaves,stem,buds and flowers
The root system is below ground and includes roots as well as modified stem structures such as tubers and rhizomes
