Answer:

Deoxyribose

Explanation:

DNA stands for "deoxyribonucleic acid" because it has the sugar deoxyribose. It's named because it has one fewer oxygen than ribose. Be careful not to confuse the two sugars--ribose is in RNA, which stands for "ribonucleic acid."

Attached is a picture of the differences between the two sugars.

In multicellular organisms, several cells of one particular kind interconnect with each other and perform shared functions to form tissues (for example, muscle tissue, connective tissue, and nervous tissue), several tissues combine to form an organ (for example, stomach, heart, or brain), and several organs make up an organ system (such as the digestive system, circulatory system, or nervous system). Several systems functioning together form an organism (such as an elephant, for example).
